A new facility to support up to 20 children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) has opened in Hull.
Ganton Special School offers education to children between the ages of two and 19 with severe and complex learning difficulties.
The new single-storey building on the site in Anlaby Park Road South has two classrooms, two quiet rooms and other facilities designed to support the children.
Alec Young, the head teacher, described the opening as a milestone and added: “I am proud of the work completed and also excited to put the classrooms to good use.”
Mr Young said the project had been a collaboration between staff, families, the community and contractors.
“By working together, we have created spaces that are not only functional, but deeply responsive to the unique needs of our pupils.”
Hull City Council said the new provision was part of its SEND Strategic Plan and would allow pupils to thrive in a tailored environment.
The project was paid for under a council programme funded by the Department for Education.
