About Our School:
We are a specialist school for academically able young men in Key Stage 3 and 4, all with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan identifying Communication and Interaction needs, often associated with Autism.

The progress our young men make, both socially and academically, is exceptional. This success is built on mutually respectful relationships between students and staff, and strong rapport with families.
