This fantastic Southwark school is a primary Special School for pupils with Autism located in South East London. The school supports a wide range of learning disabilities including pupils with severe and complex social and communication difficulties. The class you would be teaching is a Y4 group which is one of the more able classes, the pupils in class (8) range between high P Levels and low national curriculum level 2s. Many of the pupils have significant barriers to learning in terms of communication skills. The class are on the whole very well behaved although there is one child who can be very challenging although they now have 1:1 support and this has negated any detrimental effect on the class. The school has a good reputation locally and currently serves students from over a dozen London boroughs; it was judged a "Good" school in its recent OFSTED inspection.
