School Description

Churchill Park School caters for pupils with moderate learning difficulties, severe learning difficulties, profound and multiple learning difficulties and autistic spectrum disorders. In addition, some pupils have hearing impairment, visual impairment and complex medical needs. It is the only special school in West Norfolk In March 2014 a new headteacher was appointed and was employed for two days a week before taking up the full-time position in September 2014. He is the fourth appointment since the school opened in 2009 following the amalgamation of two existing, but very separate, local special schools. The headteacher was involved in the appointment of a number of new teaching staff who started at the school in September 2014. This included the appointment of two assistant headteachers to strengthen the new senior leadership team. All pupils have a statement of special educational needs or are in the process of having an education health and care plan drawn up. The early years provision is full time. Children in Reception class share their education with older pupils in Years 1 and 2. An above-average proportion of disadvantaged pupils are supported through the pupil premium, which is additional government funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and looked-after children. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds, including those from families where English is an additional language, are below average. These pupils are represented across all of the different disability and special educational needs groups in the school. Some students attend the Open Road Centre to gain qualifications in motor vehicle maintenance. The school is part of Trust Norfolk SEN, which is a cooperative involving all special schools in the county. The Trust operates school-to-school support which facilitates consultancy advice and support for staff working with children and young people with special educational needs in mainstream schools. Churchill School is also a partner in the Encompass Teaching School Alliance and works in close collaboration with other mainstream and special schools.
