School Description

Hazel Court provides education for pupils who have a range of special educational needs or disability including profound and multiple learning difficulties, severe learning difficulties, moderate learning difficulties, speech, language and communication needs, and autistic spectrum conditions. Hazel Court is a special school, organised into two phases and situated on two school sites that are three and a half miles apart. The secondary department is co-located with The Causeway School. The sixth form department is co-located with Sussex Downs College. Both phases are run by the same governing body and share the same headteacher. An assistant headteacher is based at each site. No alternative provision is used. All pupils have an education, health and care plan or statements of special educational needs. Approximately one third of pupils are eligible for the pupil premium, which is additional government funding for pupils in local authority care or eligible for free school meals. Since the previous inspection, leadership arrangements have been changed. The senior leadership team now comprises a headteacher and two assistant headteachers, who were both appointed to these roles from other senior positions in the school. Almost all pupils are of White British heritage and the significant majority are boys. The school works in partnership with other local schools and alliances to improve teaching and learning. This includes the East Sussex Special School Alliance and Cuckmere House Teaching School. The school meets requirements on the publication of specified information on its website.
