Alfriston School

Alfriston is an outstanding Special School with Academy status for girls aged 11-19 with moderate learning difficulties and speech and language and communication difficulties based in Beaconsfield. We currently have 156 girls on roll, pupils attend from all over Buckinghamshire and some neighbouring counties. We are also a residential school and have provision for 20 pupils to board with us on a weekly basis. All our pupils have an Education Health Care Plan and are taught in small groups and with additional support. 

Our staff are specialist subject teachers and are experienced in working with a range of special needs and abilities. We consider the staff team as our most valuable resource. Training and development is a high priority in the school. There is also personal support given to staff to manage the diverse and challenging work needed to support pupils with significant special needs. At present there are 70 staff employed at the school working in the teaching, support, residential and administrative teams. We are proud of the excellent standard of education provided at Alfriston.
