Chailey Heritage School
Haywards Heath Road, North Chailey,
Lewes
,
Founded in 1903, the school has continually adapted to meet the wide range of special needs presented by our young people. Today, the school’s multidisciplinary team offers education, therapy and specialist health services on a single site, sharing its location with Chailey Heritage Clinical Services, a specialist NHS clinical team. Our expert teachers work in partnership with paediatric medical consultants, speech & language therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses and rehabilitation engineers. This holistic approach ensures that learning can be designed to suit each individual. Pioneering technology has enabled us to introduce a sophisticated track system which guides powered wheelchairs around the site, allowing pupils more independence. We have a special auditory ‘sign-posting’ system which assists pupils with visual impairments to recognise their exact location on site. Other facilities include a purpose-built hydrotherapy pool, a multi-sensory studio and dedicated horse riding facilities. Our spacious classrooms have the latest in ICT technology, specially adapted to allow our pupils access to the curriculum. Teaching groups are kept small with a high staff to pupil ratio. Ofsted judged Chailey Heritage School outstanding in May 2007 and again in September 2009.
Chailey Heritage School is part of Chailey Heritage Foundation - Registered Charity Number 1075837
