School Description

The school provides for pupils with severe, profound, multiple and complex learning difficulties. All the pupils have a statement of special educational needs. The number eligible for the pupil premium, awarded for pupils entitled to free school meals or in the care of the local authority is close to the national average. About one third of the pupils are girls. The great majority of pupils are White British, with a minority from other ethnic groups, reflecting the make up of the local authority. A few pupils speak English as an additional language and there is a very small number who are in the care of the local authority. Pupils in the sixth form are taught within groups that cover the 14 to 19 age range.
