The pupils who will attend Egham Park will be placed at the school by the Local Education Authority. Their primary area of need will be Social, Emotional and Mental Health Needs (SEMH). Most will come to us having had previous negative experience of school, resulting in emotional based school avoidance for many. As a result, most will have been out of school for some time, and many will join us late in their secondary educational career. The school will offer a very flexible, low demand, low arousal environment where pupils are at the centre of their learning choices. This will equip them to feel empowered and safe within the environment. Each pupil will have a bespoke differentiated curriculum. Whilst they will follow a timetable of subjects, they will be able to make choices as to what they are studying under those subject headings, thus motivating them to engage in learning.
