At Rosebank School, we are proud to be an Autism Accredited school, recognising our commitment to providing high-quality, person-centred support for autistic children.

Our recent Autism Accreditation assessment highlighted the many ways in which our staff tailor learning and support to each child’s individual strengths, interests, preferences and needs. Our children are supported to develop their communication, independence, emotional wellbeing and social skills through a specialist, skills-based curriculum.

The assessment recognised our strong use of Speech and Language Therapy, Positive Behaviour Support, sensory regulation strategies, visual communication and personalised approaches. Children are encouraged to develop independence, make choices, communicate their needs and take part in purposeful activities both in school and within their local community.

We are particularly proud of the positive feedback from our children and families, with 88% of children who participated in the survey saying that “the help I get is good” and 92% of parents rating the support their child receives as mostly or always good.

Our accreditation recognises the commitment of our staff, children and families to creating a welcoming, supportive and inclusive school community where every child is encouraged to thrive.

“Working with staff at the school is like ‘pushing an open door’ with staff being welcoming to classes and receptive to any advice.”
— Speech and Language Therapist, as reported in the Autism Accreditation assessment.

“The committee congratulate the school for maintaining and further developing quality practice in supporting autistic young people.”
