About Alexandra School
Our School
Alexandra School is a fully inclusive primary school that specialises in supporting pupils aged 4–11 with complex, moderate learning disabilities, sometimes associated with behavioural, emotional, social, communication, physical or sensory needs.
Our pupils learn best alongside their peers, engaging in social learning in small groups, within a stimulating environment.
Adaptations can be made seamlessly for pupils who require lower stimulation at times in order to re-regulate in readiness to learn.
Alexandra School caters for pupils who may experience a range of cognitive, communication, and social and emotional difficulties which would make placement in a mainstream setting too challenging for the child.
The school offers full-time places for all its pupils.
Alexandra School serves the Harrow community and as such, reflects the ethnic diversity of the local population.
Alexandra School is a member of the Eden Academy Trust, a family of schools that specialise in meeting the educational needs of children and young people with a range of learning difficulties.
