Your new school
Gretton School welcomes autistic children and young people aged from 5-19 years old, as weekly boarders or as day learners.
Every learner at Gretton has a diagnosis of Autism, and the ability to learn at or above the level of their mainstream peers, but require a specialist setting in order to achieve their remarkable potential.
As autism specialists, we understand that consistent daily routines and staffing helps to keep anxiety at a minimum and ensures that our learners feel safe and confident in their surroundings.
We have a high staff to learner ratio and classes are small and personal - we know each of our learners really well and employ the best strategies to support them in their everyday school life.
A broad curriculum, an emphasis on holistic development, and the development of life and social skills, means that we are able to bring out the best in all our learners, and to provide them with opportunities to flourish.
At whatever stage a young person joins Gretton, we will ensure they are happy and prepared to make the most of the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life.

As Primary Teacher & Key Stage Leader, you will deliver a broad and balanced curriculum to a small class of up to 10 pupils, adapting lessons to meet the needs of learners on the autistic spectrum. Alongside your teaching responsibilities, you will lead your Key Stage team, driving excellence and continuous improvement.
