Buckinghamshire will get a brand new special educational needs free school in the county.
The council put forward a successful bid to be one of sixteen locations for the new special free schools, to create significantly more specialist provision in the county for children with additional needs. Building the new school is a key part of Buckinghamshire Council's SEND sufficiency strategy, which aims to ensure all children with identified SEND can access a high quality education that caters for their needs.
The new school will provide high quality provision for pupils with Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs who require therapeutic support. The council will now work with the Department for Education to identify a sponsor for the new school and to bring the proposal forward, confirming the site and timeframes. It's proposed that the new school will offer 152 places for children aged 7-19, offering a high-quality education with therapeutic support, offering Maths, English and Science at Btec and GCSE level alongside other vocational subjects.
