- Description
Sutherland House School is a specialist day school for autistic students. We make provision for up to 94 pupils and students between the ages of 3 and 19.
Pupils attend on a daily basis and are placed with us by Local Authorities throughout the East Midlands.
Our overall objective at the school is to provide the highest quality specialist education – addressing the specific needs of autism as well as the individuality of each pupil and his or her family.
We have exceptionally high staffing ratios and employ a range of specialists including speech and language therapists, psychologists, music specialists and occupational therapists.
We are committed to the broad principles of inclusion and a number of our pupils have periods of mainstream educational experience as part of their individual education plan.
As a leading autism charity we exist to ensure people with autism can live their lives with dignity, choice and independence.
Autism East Midlands was started on the initiative of a group of parents in 1968. Today we are still led by the parents and friends of autistic people. Autism is a complex, life-long disability which affects the development of communication, social and life skills.
We provide help and support to families and individuals affected by autism from across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, surrounding counties and beyond.
Our well trained and passionate staff offer a wide range of services to help individuals to live their lives the way they want.
