New Park Academy, part of the Sovereign Trust, is a special setting for pupils in Key Stages 2, 3 & 4 (Year 3 – Year 11) who have been assessed as having social, emotional and/or mental health difficulties, often linked to other issues such as specific and/or moderate learning or communication difficulties.
Our school recognises that our young people have often faced years of barriers to learning before they have been referred. Our school prides itself in seeing each child and young person as an individual and therefore looking for ‘out of the box’ solutions where needed: school needs to fit around the needs of the child – not the other way round!
