Welcome from the Headteacher​

Hello, I’m Mrs Rachael Booth the proud Head teacher of The Willows.

We are a ‘Can do’ School, with an amazing environment in which to learn and develop skills for life. We feel this is a school with a very special atmosphere and visitors have often said the same. Walk around our school, with its clean, bright rooms and outdoor areas I think you will see what we mean. There’s a cheerful, warm feeling which comes from a dedicated, caring team, working with very special young people.

We take pupils age 7 to 19 with a range of moderate learning difficulties; some with additional needs such as speech and language difficulties, children on the autistic spectrum and children with emotional and behavioural difficulties.

What It’s Like to Be a Pupil in Our School

 

What the Ofsted inspectors wrote really captures what we want people to see about our school:

“Pupils eagerly attend this inclusive and nurturing school…Staff know pupils well. They build trusting relationships that remove barriers to attendance and learning. Parents and carers value the school’s significant, positive impact on their children’s happiness and achievements. Pupils feel respected and cared for. They trust adults to support them with any concerns…The school prepares pupils effectively for adulthood and life beyond school by providing a rich range of  experiences.”
