EXHALL GRANGE SCHOOL
Founded in 1951 on the site of a former army base .The school originally specialised in teaching pupils with visual impairment . However , it later began to extend its facilities and to enrol students with other disabilities . It was, for many years, predominately a boarding school, with pupils attending from across the United Kingdom, and it was regarded as one of the very best in its field.
In more recent years, a greater number of children with special needs have been included in mainstream education and the role of Exhall Grange as a special school has since changed.
These days the school caters for a diverse range of needs, sadly its residential facilities no longer exist. The school caters for pupils in the main catchment area, being the northern part of Warwickshire, including Bedworth and Nuneaton.
In July 2003 Exhall Grange became the first special school to achieve specialist science College status.The new science labs being most impressive, the students benefit from being able to access a wonderful range of practical lessons.
The school is currently under going extensive building works and; as you can see from the picture gallery has some amazing outdoor play equipment for all the students. The emphasis being on inclusion. i.e. allowing youngster both in wheel chairs or more mobile to enjoy the same facility and socialise at the same time!
