John Watson School is a Community Special School for children and young people from 2 - 19 years old with moderate, severe, complex, or profound learning difficulties. Our school is organised into 13 classes, including Early Years and Sixth Form. 
The school is based in the village of Wheatley on two split site locations that have access to the local community amenities, which support our pupils in developing their independence, social and communication skills. Although we are based in a rural area, we are proud of having a diverse community of learners from a broad range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds. 
We are fortunate to have highly skilled and dedicated staff that are reflective and forward thinking, who are keen to develop their knowledge and skills further through embracing Continuing Professional Development opportunities. 
The school is committed to delivering lasting success for our pupils is all the more achievable given our strong partnerships and meaningful engagement with the wider community. We work closely with parents / carers, professionals, external organisations and our governing body to ensure that pupils are at the centre of the decision making process.
