School Description

This is a small, non-maintained special school that is run by a charitable trust, Paces Sheffield. All pupils have an education, health and care plan. Pupils attending this school are between three and 18 years old. Pupils attend from a variety of local authorities. The current acting headteacher, who was previously the assistant headteacher, has been in post since November 2018. She is supported in senior leadership by a lead conductor teacher. The school uses the practice of conductive education. This method of education aims to help pupils overcome difficulties with movement and as a result extends their capacity for learning and personal development.

Average Parent Rating


“Fantastic”


A fabulous school for any child with physical disabilities. My child has been attending this school for many years and wouldn’t be where they are now if not for such a fabulous team!
“Avoid”


The school is great at improving physical skills, however not many of the pupils are independent from what I have seen. The management of the school is lacking in my opinion. Love conductive education but not at this school.
