Secondary Autism Resource Provision

Our Secondary Autism Resource Provision is housed in the central building of the site, known as the Hub. There are three teaching in rooms in the Hub. Each classroom has an independent working area where pupils are able to work in small groups fitted with modern interactive white boards. There is a library to support pupils with literacy developments as well as being a space for regulating activities. Our real life flat has a kitchen for pupils to undertake life skills activities such as cooking, washing dishes and clothes. We have a specialist medical centre with equipment such as Physiotherapy/Hoist to cater for a variety of needs.
