Our Commitment to Every Child

In the community of St George’s School everyone is considered as an individual and is valued equally. Everyone is made to feel welcome and has a voice.

St George’s School caters for students with severe and complex learning needs, including Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD), Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD), and Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. All students at St George’s have a current Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).

Our school is a safe, supportive and welcoming place where students are encouraged to achieve, have fun and develop the skills they need for their own individual and informed pathways beyond school and into adulthood. We are proud to be an inclusive school where every student is valued, respected and supported to participate fully in school life and achieve their individual potential.

We support our students to learn to make choices for now and for the future, developing their independence and self-sufficiency wherever possible and enabling them to take their place in society as part of Modern Britain.

At St George’s, we encourage everyone to do their personal best and celebrate every achievement, however large or small. Together, as a school community, we experience the world, work towards individual goals and dreams, and support every student to be the very best they can be.
