We offer a range of interventions and personalised learning strategies to ensure every individual student’s needs are taken into consideration and appropriate support is provided.

• 2 Pastoral Support Assistants
• Education Welfare Officer
• Pastoral Support (Head of Year and Assistant Head of Year)

On-site facilities for students with a sensory or physical disability include specialist shower and toilets, sound proofing, height adjustable tables, ramps and non-slip surfacing. All subjects can also be accommodated on the ground floor to support wheelchair users.

All applications for admission to South Hunsley from students with special educational needs are carefully assessed to ensure we have the necessary facilities and support in place to be able to provide a high quality programme.
