  • Commitment to trauma-informed, neuro-affirming practice

We Offer:

  • Small class sizes with excellent support staff

  • A positive, inclusive and supportive staff culture

  • Ongoing CPD with a focus on autism-specific pedagogies and emotional regulation

  • Access to multi-disciplinary support (including SALT, OT, and Educational Psychology)

Come and be part of a school where difference is celebrated, and teaching is transformative.
