Penny Field School
Penny Field School caters for children and young people (aged 3-19) with Complex and Multiple Learning Needs (CMLN). The school includes five classrooms and care suites with full tracking, a dedicated rebound room, hydrotherapy pool and sensory room. Our outside provision includes a wheelchair accessible swing, sensory garden and greenhouse.
Pupils at Penny Field School have individual learning plans with a focus on communication and developing independence. This is delivered with an intensive interaction approach. The school has a 3 year topic cycle and delivers a very sensory based curriculum enabling pupils to awaken all their senses in order to reach their full potential in their ability to sense, think and reason. Penny Field School recently affiliated with the Special Olympics, helping to deliver their Motor Activity Training Programme for pupils.
We are supported in school by a team of NHS nurses who provide for any medical interventions our pupils may need, together with Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and Speech and Language Therapists who all visit school on a regular basis to provide any input and equipment our pupils may require.
Our on site Hydro Pool allows us to deliver individual Hydro Therapy programmes and our purpose built Rebound room with its floor level trampoline means we can deliver individual Rebound Therapy programmes, all designed by our Physiotherapist and carried out by our fully trained staff.
From a parent
Recently my daughter, has been quite poorly with her deteriorating epilepsy condition. She absolutely loves attending school and has made great progress over recent years. I would like to commend the wonderful, professional care that she receives daily from her classroom staff, educare staff and by no means least, the dedicated nursing staff.
From one of our pupils
School is really fun!!
