Longcause Community Special School
Longcause Community Special School is for children aged 4-16. The school is Autism friendly, where pupils support one another and staff and families work closely together for the best outcomes for their children.
We specifically cater for the needs of children with communication and interaction difficulties together with cognition and learning. This means that our children usually have a moderate learning difficulty as well as an Autistic Spectrum Condition (ASC).
