**Linden Lodge School is a day and residential special needs school for pupils with Vision and Multi Sensory Impairment. We are based in Wimbledon, southwest London, and consider prospective pupils from a wide area.**:
The education of pupils with Sensory Impairment is highly specialist and therefore we have specialist teachers, a specialist sensory curriculum and extensive specialist resources and facilities on our campus.

These include:

- A large workforce of specialist sensory impairment teachers who in addition to their teaching qualifications hold a Diploma or Masters Degree in teaching the visually impaired, hearing-impaired and multi-sensory impaired
- A large on-site therapy team of Speech and Language therapists, Physiotherapists and Occupational therapists directly employed by the school who work alongside teachers and education teams
- A team of habilitationists for the visually-impaired
- An onsite Learning Resources Centre which enables us to provide a wide range of fully accessible learning resources tailored to meet each pupil’s specific sensory needs
- On-site Vision assessment hub to carry out Functional Vision Assessments
- An NHS standard Audiology testing booth to assess pupils’ hearing and the use of audiological equipment
- A centre for families of children with Sensory Impairment to provide training, parent guidance and social opportunities
- An accessible physical environment including acoustically treated classrooms and clear signage for the visually-impaired

Our expectations for each pupil are high and we understand that each pupil with a Sensory Impairment has a unique diagnosis and learning profile. We have specialist centres for pupils with profound multiple learning needs and also for pupils following the National Curriculum and a range of GCSE, BTEC and externally accredited pathways.

We, therefore, offer a range of Curriculum pathways each tailored to pupils’ needs and abilities delivered through our departmental and specialist centres. A number of our centres are in separate purpose-built accommodation on site.

We want our pupils to reach their potential and achieve as much independence as possible. Every pupil has, in addition to their curriculum targets, personal goals to optimise their use of Vision, Hearing and other Senses.
