School Description

Gosberton House School is an average-sized special school in the village of Gosberton in Lincolnshire. It caters mainly for pupils with autistic spectrum conditions and social, communication and language difficulties, although most have additional needs such as moderate or severe learning difficulties or medical needs. Pupils enter the school at varying times during their primary education, many transferring from mainstream schools. Some enter the school as late as Year 6. The school has an assessment facility in its Early Years Foundation Stage class and some of these children transfer when they are five years old to mainstream schools or other special schools. All pupils have a statement of special educational needs. There are many more boys than girls and the proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is high. The majority of pupils are from a White British background. A very few speak English as an additional language or are looked after by the local authority. The school has an outreach role providing over 60 schools with advice about pupils with autistic spectrum and social, communication and language difficulties. The school has numerous prestigious awards, including Autism Accreditation through the National Autistic Society.
