These are destinations schools have published for past leavers. They describe what happened, not what will happen for any one child. How to read this.
Admissions
Places at special schools are normally arranged through a child's Education, Health and Care Plan, with the local authority naming the school. Speak to your borough's special educational needs team rather than applying on the general admissions form.
Inspection

(inspection of the predecessor school, Oakwood School)Historic. This is the last time Ofsted gave the school a single overall grade. Overall grades were abolished for state schools in September 2024.

Results
National test and exam measures are not shown for special schools. Most pupils are not entered for them, so the published figures (often 0%) say nothing about the school.
