One of the best environments in SEND

The School benefits from extensive outdoor space plus a large central courtyard garden and separate playgrounds, with a multi-use games area.
There are good public transport connections with Chigwell Station less than a mile away, providing Central Line Tube services to London and Essex. The road links are good - the site is located near the M11, Junction 4.
