Another intervention, approach and programme offered by the school is Social Communication/ Emotional Regulation/ Transactional Support (SCERTS).

All pupils have statements of special need. The school is situated in the Eastern district of Northampton and serves the town and surrounding area. It is organised into primary and secondary departments plus the autistic provision, each with a Head of Department. Billing Brook also has a satellite provision based on a mainstream secondary site.
