Developing our special school provision

Overview

The local authority wishes to consult with parents and other interested groups on its proposal to develop Strathmore School into a multi-site special school co-located on mainstream school sites.

 We are dedicated to improving the quality of special school facilities available locally for pupils with severe and complex learning needs. We have an ambitious vision for Strathmore School and are therefore proposing purpose-built facilities co-located on mainstream school sites to offer a richer curriculum and genuine opportunities for inclusive learning.

 The potential benefits of the proposal are:

 -Improved buildings and facilities

-Closer links with mainstream schools to increase opportunities for inclusive learning

-Increase in number of places available at Strathmore School

-Enhanced provision for pupils with more complex needs

-Greater local choice for parents and their children
