A big warm welcome to our website
At Turner Court School, we want our pupils to hold the belief that they are worthy of love and belonging. This is the foundation for all life experiences they will encounter. It starts in school with having the courage to engage with learning, connect with others, and show compassion towards themselves and those around them.
We have high aspirations for every pupil and are committed to helping them discover their strengths, develop confidence, and fulfil their potential. We believe that all children can achieve success when they are valued, understood and supported.
Our curriculum follows the National Curriculum, adapted to meet the needs of the individual. It is brought to life through regular off-site visits that support both educational and personal growth. We enrich learning through access to the natural environment, making use of local spaces, as well as bringing nature into the classroom.
Alongside academic and personal achievement, we believe school should be a place of joy. We want our pupils to experience the wonder of discovery, the excitement of new opportunities, the pride that comes from overcoming challenges, and the happiness of belonging to a community where they are known and valued.
Head Teacher, Yenna Yeo.
