Hob Moor Oaks is a primary special school catering for children who have significant special educational needs and have a statement or Education, Health, Care Plan. Hob Moor Oaks offers a range of specialist facilities and provision including an accessible school pool, multi-sensory theatre, soft play room; white room; rebound facility and access to colleagues in the health teams. We can have upwards of 400 children and 100 staff on site. We pride ourselves in providing a safe and calm learning environment. We currently have 11 classes at Hob Moor Oaks; they all have names which relate to parts of the oak tree. We try to put groups of children together who are of a similar age and who are likely to learn well together. Our classes are very small. They currently range from 3 children to 10 children. Each class has a teacher and at least one teaching assistant. In the Oaks we offer a range of learning environments which help to address the child’s barriers to learning. We have compact classrooms with small side rooms which can offer a continuum of low stimulation accommodation. Currently there are 4 specific classes for children with autism however some children with autism are included in other classes. We use a range of classroom furniture which addresses individual children’s barriers to learning. All of the Oaks classrooms have toilet facilities and kitchen areas. We work closely with families and many other agencies to provide a holistic approach for each child.
