The way we work

Our multidisciplinary team works across our school and residential accommodation to ensure that the child’s plans and programmes are designed holistically with strategies to optimise their accessibility to learn, participate and thrive.

“Indy has had a wonderful start at The Children’s Trust School and has settled in really well to her new environment. She is thoroughly enjoying all aspects of school life and is very happy and engaged. It has been very comforting to know that she is enjoying her new school and making new friends. I couldn’t be happier.”

Together, we have a ‘whole system response’ to deliver high quality support for childrSchoolen with special educational needs, placing their quality of life at the centre of what we do.

By working in partnership with parents and carers, we promote each child’s intellectual, physical, emotional and social development, both during the school day and beyond. We deliver a personalised curriculum in an integrated, holistic and age-respectful way to support each child to achieve their full potential in meaningful ways.Arrow
