A school for pupils with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), severe learning difficulties (SLD) and challenging behaviours. It uses an eclectic approach utilising proven methods successful with pupils with ASDs. It has well qualified and dedicated staff who work with the pupils' ASDs in order to fully realise potential. The school uses a cross curricular approach where individual need drives curriculum planning and delivery. Volunteers may be accepted to work with the pupils. Residential provision is available to some pupils during the school week (maximum 2 nights). The farm and garden facilities are available through an external provider. Shiatsu therapy is also available at the school. We have just opened a new provision for primary aged pupils of average ability with autism.
