Dietary needs
We are 'self catering' meaning we employ and provide our own nutritious menu following school food standards. Our provision is amongst the best available. We also cater for all diets and allergens.
Special needs (children)
As an inclusive school, we cater for a range of needs. We have an experienced staff who will go 'the extra mile' to meet needs based on the approach "if a child doesn't learn the way you teach, teach the way the child learns". We have a dedicated Nurture provision and hope to develop this approach in other areas of school during the 2025-26 academic year. We have ADHD Friendly accreditation and are undergoing the PINS (Partnerships for Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools) accreditation this year.
