What the school says

We are an area special school, providing education for children who have learning difficulties, across the whole range. We are located in the heart of mainstream provision, although we remain a separate special school. This allows us to run a successful programme of inclusion links with local schools. A strong feature of our school is the high level of staffing, which provides our pupils with the individual support that they need.
