Meldreth Manor: a special school for disabled children

Staffing

"Pupils’ personal development is good because they are supported well by the large number of experienced and well-qualified staff." Ofsted 2008

Relationships between staff and pupils are based on politeness, mutual respect and appreciation. Our staff provide a positive atmosphere where pupils can be involved in their own learning with confidence and support.

All of our staff work in inter-disciplinary teams, which are specifically designed to support pupils with complex support needs. As well as a class group teacher and learning support assistant, every student has access to a key team. This includes a physiotherapist, a speech and language therapist, a nurse and social care staff.

Each pupil who has a residential placement at Meldreth has a keyworker, who co-ordinates and oversees their care support plan and liaises with family and carers.
