Why Are We Special?

The Westminster School caters for pupils with Moderate Learning Difficulties, plus Additional Needs. We are a secondary phase special school catering for pupils aged 11-19. We offer pupils a broad and balanced curriculum, whilst aiming to meet their individual special educational needs.

The school is committed to equal opportunities, and all pupils are expected to leave school with a range of externally accredited qualifications. Preparation for life takes on a more prominent role as pupils progress through the school. At all times they are expected to work and behave responsibly, showing respect and consideration for others.

Our OFSTED Inspection (September 2006) recognised that we are a good, caring school that provides an effective individualised education for its pupils. Inspectors reported that the pupils at The Westminster School feel secure and act in safe ways because they receive good quality personal guidance. Inspectors reported that the pupils at The Westminster School are well looked after, they are safe, contented and happy.

Working in Partnership

The Westminster School believes that we can provide a better quality of education for pupils if we work in partnership with pupils, parents/carers, governors, the Local Authority and the wider community.

The success of a school lies in the successes and achievements of its pupils.
We can provide your child with a high quality, enjoyable education, working towards:
