Welcome to Kingsmead School. As a Special School and a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU), we offer a variety of specialist provision from Reception to Year 11. I feel privileged to be the Executive Headteacher of these schools, and am proud of the journey we are shaping. We strive to continue the development of confidence in our school by students, staff and the wider community, we aim to be great today and better tomorrow!
Students are at the heart of everything we are working to achieve and we aim to provide all students with a personalised curriculum that takes into account their individual needs and requirements.
As a community we aspire to developing young people who leave either Kingsmead or Newton’s Walk with a level of RESPECT that empowers them to be successful through their journey in life.
