News Updates:

• We are delighted to announce that £1,400 was raised at school for Children in Need. Thank you to all who helped make the day such a success!

Welcome to Woodeaton Manor School, a daytime and residential Foundation Special School that offers a nurturing environment for 84 pupils, all of whom have an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) or Statement of Special Educational Need, with severe emotional and social difficulties in Key Stages 2/3/4/5.

Woodeaton Manor School changed designation in 2004 from a school providing for pupils with moderate learning difficulties to a school for pupils with emotional and social difficulties.

Woodeaton Manor caters for a wide range of special educational needs, including the following diagnosed or described conditions:

• Attachment Difficulty

• Autistic Spectrum Disorder, including Asperger’s Syndrome

• Dyspraxia

• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)    

• Specific Learning Difficulties, i.e. Dyslexia

• Speech and Language Disorder

• Tourettes Syndrome

A large proportion of pupils have mental health issues and require extended support from a range of multi-professional services.

Woodeaton has extended its age limits twice since its re-designation. In 2009 Woodeaton established its Sixth Form provision and in June 2012, Woodeaton lowered  the age limit to admit six Key Stage 2 age pupils who are taught in ‘The Nest’ (Now Everyone Succeeds Together). Woodeaton also became a Foundation School on 1st April 2008.
