Schools for sensory or physical impairment
Are you looking for a school that specialises in sensory or physical impairment? Here you can find and compare schools that meet your child's needs.
Please note that for entry in our guidebook and website we ask schools to nominate one particular area of speciality to provide extra guidance for our readers. Those schools that have chosen sensory or physical impairment are featured on this page.
We do appreciate, however, that many schools provide services that span two or more of our categories, so please do check out our other featured schools in the following categories to give you a full picture of the schools available:
a) social interaction difficulties (autism, ASD & ASP)
b) emotional, behavioural and/or social difficulties (EBSD)
c) learning difficulties (including dyslexia/SPLD)
You will find all special schools with a speciality in sensory or physical impairment at the bottom of this page, with abbreviations denoting the conditions each school caters for (check our glossary for definitions).
Click on a school's name for information about that school. Schools at the top of the listings in highlighted panels feature full profile information including social media, website and email links and optional video.
You can narrow down your search by using the search boxes below to select schools by age, gender, and those that offer residential facilities.
You can also search by region and our postcode search facility allows you to find and compare schools nearest to you by searching a radius of two to 100 miles.
You can gain further advice from a selection of articles on this website about choosing a special needs school.
These search results are from www.specialneedsguide.co.uk, the online edition of John Catt's Which School? for Special Needs guidebook.
