Welcome from the Headteacher

Welcome to Gretton School; a forward thinking and inclusive autism specialist school where the children and young people are at the centre of everything the staff team do.

The team here at Gretton are highly skilled and trained in all aspects of their roles, particularly autism, and are actively supported by broad clinical and therapeutic disciplines ensuring a holistic approach to the achievement of wide ranging developmental, social, communicative, sensory and academic outcomes.

Gretton offers an integrated model of education, care and therapy which dovetail to ensure that students are challenged effectively to make their next steps whilst feeling safe and supported.

The breadth of experiences and curricula offered ensure that every student is able to maximise their progress and the facilities are specifically tailored with autism in mind. We have further plans to develop our campus environment to increase the offer of further specialist areas.

We are committed to equipping our students with independence, an awareness of safety and self-reliance, as well as developing the social skills they need to thrive in an ever more complex society.

I hope that once you have read through this recruitment site, you will arrange a visit to the school, where you can not only see, but feel the positive culture here at Gretton.
