Highfurlong school delivers outstanding education and care to children with a wide range of physical, medical and neurological conditions and associated learning difficulties aged between 2 and 19 years.

All our pupils are working at below national expectations on entry to the school. They are encouraged and supported to develop their personal skills to enable them to achieve at the highest possible level and therefore ‘be the very best’ that they can be in all aspects of their lives.
We set very high standards in all areas and are not afraid to move forward to ensure that all our learners are successful.
Our school curriculum is delivered through the National Curriculum, differentiated and personalised, to meet the needs of every pupil. There are also substantial work related learning and enterprise activities leading onto external accreditation. This is supported by outstanding Personal, Social and Health Education and Information, Advice and Guidance provision.

There is a very strong focus on the quality of teaching and learning supported by very good and frequently outstanding teaching. At Highfurlong we work very hard to ensure that all our students make very good progress and reach their full cognitive potential through excellent assessment.
Our aim is to continually develop innovative staff, strong teams and an organisation that continually strives to achieve the highest standards.
We have high aspirations, high expectations and a very successful school that continually adapts to change and moves forward to ensure that all our learners have the very best opportunities. This is driven by highly effective partnerships with the public, private and charity sector.
