Our mission, vision and ethos.
Our mission is for everyone to see ‘Autism as a strength and not a weakness’
The vision of our school is to help prepare young people to make a successful transition into adulthood with the confidence and the necessary skills to live an independent fulfilling life.
We intend for Lady Byron School to be an exemplar school promoting best practice and a holistic approach to preparing our young people for a life beyond school. We are committed to ensuring that our young people achieve their personal best and have access to the same opportunities as their mainstream peers.
We aim to achieve this vision by creating a vibrant, friendly, and welcoming learning community where:
- Students and staff are happy to come to school every day and are proud of what they achieve.
- Parents and carers are confident that their young people are safe, nurtured, making positive progress and that their voices are heard.
- Provide a person centred curriculum that enables students to overcomes barriers to learning whilst nurturing their academic and social development and caring for their wellbeing.
LBS is a student oriented and team-driven provision. The best way to describe our ethos was for the team to explain it themselves
At The Lady Byron School we:
- take a positive and supportive approach
- enable our students rather than disable them
- respect one another
- we have a can do attitude
- are hard-working and resilient
- are passionate to provide the best for our students
- acknowledge every achievement
- create a safe and positive environment
- learn from each other and have fun
- are a tight supportive team
