Welcome to Benton Dene Special School
Welcome to Benton Dene School, a specialist school for pupils aged 4-11 years old, where every child is valued, challenged, supported and successful.
As Headteacher, I am proud to lead a dedicated team that strives to provide a nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating environment tailored to the needs of each individual pupil. We believe that every child has unique strengths and talents and it is our mission to foster their development through personalised learning, innovative support, and a strong sense of community in order to reach their full potential.
At Benton Dene School, our team believes that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and we achieve this by providing an aspirational curriculum that is engaging, flexible, and designed to support the diverse learning styles of our pupils.
We are in a unique position to share a site with Benton Dene Primary School and whilst we are two separate schools, we are co-located in an innovative, inclusive primary campus which boasts a range of specialist areas and facilities.
Whether your child is just joining us or has been part of our school family for years, we are committed to working closely with you to ensure they feel supported and empowered every step of the way. Together, we can unlock their potential and help them achieve success in both their personal and academic journeys.
We are proud to work in close partnership with a range of multi-agency stakeholders, ensuring a supportive network that encourages each child to flourish.
Thank you for visiting our website, and I encourage you to learn more about our school community and the exceptional opportunities we offer.
I look forward to welcoming you to our school.
Warm regards,
Claire Harrison-Hoggarth
Headteacher
