School Description

The Collett School provides education for pupils who have a range of complex SEN and/or disabilities. The majority have autism spectrum disorder, and a significant number have speech, language and communication needs. All pupils have an EHCP. Pupils are taught in mixed-aged classes. The school can educate children from the age of four years old. The number of Reception-age children has been small over several years and is too low to make a separate judgement on their education. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils eligible for the pupil premium funding is above that found nationally. The school provides alternative education for students in key stage 4, in partnership with West Herts College. Since September 2017, the school has been working in association with another local Inspection report: The Collett School, 16–17 October 2018 Page 9 of 12 special school. The executive headteacher leads both. In January 2019, The Collett School is due to change to a Foundation school. At that point a federation for both schools with one governing body will be established.
