Bishop Challoner School, a Catholic independent school serving ages 3-18, will close after this academic year due to factors like Labour's VAT hike and rising living costs. The closure announcement shocked the community, prompting parents to seek alternate schools urgently. Many families appreciated the school's special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) support, with one parent expressing distress over her son's emotional struggles following the news. With a significant SEND population, concerns have emerged about accommodating these students in other local schools, leading to fundraising efforts aimed at keeping Bishop Challoner open.
The support he's had at Bishop Challoner has been second to none. They're so patient with him; nothing is too much trouble for these staff.
Many chose Bishop Challoner because of its SEND provision, and concerns arise over finding suitable alternatives for students amidst the school's closure.
