School Description

Unsted Park is a residential special school, part of the Priory Group, offering fulltime education to male and female pupils between the ages of seven and 20. The school is registered for 80 pupils. Currently, 13 pupils stay in residential provision Monday to Friday during term time. The school caters for young people with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder and associated disorders, such as anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, and pathological demand avoidance. All pupils have SEND and usually have an EHC plan. Most pupils are placed and funded at the school by a local authority. Since the previous inspection, there has been considerable turbulence in leadership, including the restructure of the senior leadership team and the retirement of some leaders. Several teachers and teaching assistants have left the school. Vacant posts have filled with new staff. The current headteacher has been in post since September 2018. Since the previous inspection, several new leaders have been appointed, including a mix of existing and new staff. These include both deputy headteachers, the special educational needs coordinator, the leader of the sixth form and the head of care, who is responsible for the residential provision. The education provision of the school was last judged at a full integrated inspection on 10 to 12 May 2016. Since then, the school has been subject to further inspections of its residential provision, including a full inspection in December 2017, a monitoring visit in June 2018 and a further full inspection in November 2018. Leaders currently use Farnborough College of Technology and Brooklands College to provide alternative provision to two students to broaden the range of courses those students study.
