Ashgate Croft School (ACS) is an Area Special School within Derbyshire Local Authority. Our allocated number of spaces is 139, although we are currently over subscribed with 148 pupils currently on role (YR-Y14). Pupils in the main live in Chesterfield and North East Derbyshire. All pupils have a statement of Special Educational Needs (SEN) which are gradually being transferred to Education Health Care Plans.
The majority of pupils have severe learning difficulties. They are achieving at below expected levels for their age and would have difficulty coping in a mainstream school. They may find reading and writing a problem and/or have difficulty with communication or fine and gross motor skills. Sometimes they are socially immature or they may experience health problems.
An increasing number of our pupils have autism, many of whom are taught in specialist classes.
Some of our pupils have profound and multiple learning difficulties, with severe physical and sensory difficulties. These pupils are highly dependent on adults for all aspects of their learning as well as their self-care and mobility.
A few pupils have moderate learning difficulties.
There is a very wide ability range throughout the school ranging from P1ii - level 4.
