The school provides a dedicated facility to support children and young people with complex difficulties including severe challenging behaviour. The funding will provide the dedicated facility with better equipped accommodation including more individual spaces and an additional teaching space to give staff flexibility in meeting the wide range of childrens needs.
In addition the new accommodation will be more robust to withstand damage, reducing the likelihood that areas are out of use until they are repaired.
The outcome will be a significant improvement to the support offered to these vulnerable children.
