Special Education Needs
Undershaw is a specialist setting where children aged 9 to 19 with mild to moderate learning difficulties and additional needs, such as autism, cerebral palsy, hemiplegia, and medical vulnerabilities can access the national curriculum and qualification pathways in a safe, secure, and friendly environment. Undershaw enables students to transform their futures and to realise their true potential in a safe, nurturing, and inspirational environment. These are students who may find secondary mainstream settings challenging. We offer small classes and universal therapy provision and an academic peer group to allow our students to thrive.
