Croydon young people with SEN

Our aim for children with special educational needs is that these young people achieve outcomes of independence and employment in or near their local

  • community. We expect children to be educated in

local schools that are judged good or outstanding by Ofsted.

confident in educating children with autism and learning difficulties

behaviour based curriculum – to meet children’s autism needs

in their local community

  • The school works in partnership with the Local

Authority and Croydon’s special schools
