Welcome, brief school outline & ethos

Welcome to Lady Zia Wernher School

 

Lady Zia Wernher school is a special place of learning to enable pupil voice, curiosity, independence and happiness for today and tomorrow.

It is a maintained Luton community special school educating children in EYFS, KS1&2. LZW school is currently in Stopsley, only 2 miles from the Bedfordshire/ Hertfordshire border. All children attending the school have severe or profound learning difficulties. Additional pupil need’s can include physical, sensory and communication impairment, autistic spectrum disorder and/ or complex medical needs. Pupils are either under assessment for or have an ECHP.

 

In September 2023 school will be expanding to a 2nd site on Strangers Way, Leagrave LU4 9ND, close to M1 junction 11 and L&D hospital. This is a local authority response to the growing numbers of children with SEND requiring special school places locally. When completed the site will have similar facilities to Stopsley site and will have the same curriculum offer. Children will be placed at either venue, key criteria will be reducing travel times and shorter distance to each site.

 

At Lady Zia Wernher School we aim to enable all to be the best they can be and to improve and impact lives. Our curriculum offers pupils engagement in differentiated teaching and learning supporting pupil progress and achievement. We celebrate success at all levels of education, equipping children for the next steps in life. A child’s family is fundamental to their progress and successful learning, this is most effective when the school, professionals and families work in partnership. 

Our website aims to guide parents, visitors and professionals to a good understanding of Lady Zia Wernher School, we hope you will get a good idea of who we are and what we offer.
