๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿซ Consultation on Proposed Special Educational Needs Unit (SEND Unit) for Autism (ASD) at Waingels School for September 2026 ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿซ

Waingels School is proposing to establish a new SEND Unit for students with an autism (ASD) diagnosis who have Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) and require targeted specialist support alongside mainstream education. The Unit will provide a structured, autism-friendly environment where students can access personalised interventions while remaining part of the wider school community. Pupils are expected to spend around 70% of their time in the SEND Unit and 30% in mainstream lessons, ensuring a balanced and supportive pathway into inclusive learning.

The proposed SEND Unit will help address the increasing local demand for specialist autism provision, ensuring that students can access mainstream education while receiving the personalised support they need to succeed. By creating a dedicated, inclusive environment, the Unit aims to strengthen integration and improve academic and social outcomes for students with SEND.

This new provision will also support continuity for pupils currently attending specialist bases in local primary schools and will enhance the support available to existing Waingels students. The proposal is fully supported by the school, Governors and our Trust, and we believe it represents an important opportunity for our whole school community. We welcome your views as part of this consultation.

The SEND Unit will require a new building, the capital costs of this are subject to a successful Local Authority bid.

The consultation period for the above changes began Wednesday 4th February 2026 and will run for 5 weeks, closing on Wednesday 11th March 2026. Should you wish to make any comments, thoughts or have any queries, please contact: admissions@waingels.wokingham.sch.uk
