School Description

Heritage House School is a special school, catering for pupils with profound, severe and complex needs. In December 2016, the local authority had significant concerns about the leadership and management of the school. As a result, it used its statutory powers to install an interim executive board (IEB). The IEB is now responsible for the governance of the school. The IEB appointed an interim headteacher in November 2017 who remains in post. In April 2019, the chair of the IEB wrote to parents advising them that the substantive Inspection report: Heritage House School, 15–16 May 2019 Page 9 of 12 headteacher had resigned his post. The school does not make use of alternative provision.
