- Turney school is Part of the Lansdowne Turney Federation. The Federation consists of two SEND schools in Lambeth. We see both schools as communities for children and young people with Autistic Spectrum conditions and/or language delay/disorder and associated learning difficulties. Turney School is specifically for children and young people aged from 5-19 years of age with Autistic Spectrum Condition and associated learning difficulties Developing the whole child and young person is important across the Federation. Our ethos is to provide a secure, caring, and supportive environment in which there is an expectation of pupil achievement and raised attainment. This is reflected in all we do and throughout our website. Both schools apply a holistic approach to learning and work closely with the speech therapists, the occupational therapist and the educational psychologist, the school doctor and nurse, as well as outside agencies to enable all children and young people with special educational needs to access the curriculum. All the young people attending Turney have full access to the National Curriculum, the personal, social, health, and citizenship curriculum, as well as a life skills program. In Turney’s Post 16 program the young people follow life skills, independent living, and supported employment pathway which enables them to leave Turney as happy and independent young people, ready to enter Further Education. Both schools in the Federation work closely to ensure the best possible outcomes for the children and young people through shared staff knowledge and training. In line with our shared ethos, the children and young people work across both schools. They have shared PSHCE and work experience programs, as well as the opportunity for young people to move placements across the Federation in KS3 and KS5. At Turney, curriculum opportunities extend across all aspects of the school day. Teaching is not confined to the classroom and at any time staff are there to support, teach, reinforce and develop new skills at lunchtime, playtime, and visits to the community. We aim to provide a broad and balanced curriculum that is appropriate to the needs of each pupil at Turney School. Every pupil has an Individual Education Plan (IEP) designed by the teachers in consultation with the other professionals working with the pupil. Communication plays a great part across Primary, Secondary, and Post 16. The school staff works closely with the speech and language therapists. The speech and language therapists assess the needs of all the pupils entering the school and work with them in the classrooms, in small groups, and individually. We believe in working together to support the children, regularly holding a parent/carers support group, where the communication team comes together with parents/carers to discuss areas of interest. Guest speakers are invited to these meetings including the Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists, and the Health Education Link Service. View full school
