School Description

Foxwood is a special school for pupils between the ages of three and 19 years old who have profound and severe learning difficulties. A majority of pupils who attend the school are eligible for the pupil premium. This is additional government funding provided to give extra support to those pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and to children who are looked after. Very few pupils are from minority ethnic backgrounds or speak English as an additional language. Pupils at post-16 are not entered for GCSE, but take another accredited course that prepares them for life and living. The school is part of a hard federation with another special school and has been involved in a new building project where staff from both federation schools have been working closely to prepare for the move in 2015. The school has an ‘outreach team’ of 17 teaching staff who work with the Early Years Foundation Stage and pupils who need support with cognition and learning, communication and interaction, behaviour, and visual and hearing impairment. Thirty five primary schools, six secondary schools, and two pupil referral units benefit from this specialist service. The school is a centre for excellence for Early Years Foundation Stage education. It also has awards for work it carries out with the pupils in art and in movement to develop their dexterity and coordination.
