“ Shaftesbury is an outstanding school which puts students’ well being and achievement at the heart of all planning, and promotes the highest quality of care and education” (OFSTED 2010)
Shaftesbury High School is a Special Needs School in the London Borough of Harrow. The buildings were erected in the late 1940’s for Chantry First and Middle School. It shares a site with Hatch End High School, a mainstream school of 1800 students, and St Teresa’s, a Roman Catholic First and Middle School.
At the moment the school has provision for 150 students, age 11 - 19, who experience a wide range of needs, including learning, emotional, behavioural, autistic, communication, medical, physical, sensory and social.
The school underwent a major refurbishment in 1997. Specialist rooms were redesigned, classrooms refurbished and redecorated, new toilet and shower facilities and a completely redesigned reception area and main entrance.
In 2008 a new extension was built, giving an extra class base, three specialist rooms to provide support for students on the Autistic Spectrum and an office and disabled toilet.
June 2010 saw the arrival of two modular buildings - the Whittlesea Centre a new 6th Form base, and the Long Elmes Centre, a specialist provision for pupils with social, emotional and behavioural needs.
