Tweendykes is a community special school that caters for pupils with severe learning difficulties and physical disabilities between the ages of 3-19. We strongly believe that every child should go to school excited about the day ahead and experience a sense of achievement when they go home. We strive to provide a curriculum that both motivates our pupils and encourages them to continue learning each and every day.

We are a member of the Humber Education Trust (HET).

We are based in a fantastic building co-located with Winifred Holtby Academy. We have outstanding facilities to meet the needs of all our pupils, these range from a hydrotherapy pool, sensory rooms and creative outdoor spaces as well as sharing Winifred Holtby’s teaching facilities such as, science labs and design technology classrooms.

"Our dedicated team provide the best educational opportunities for all of our pupils allowing each and every one of them to succeed in reaching their full potential."

Mrs Yvonne Briggs

We respect and value every child, ensuring high levels of care and support underpin everything we do.

We are person-centred and are inquisitive about how best to support all learners, ensuring equality of opportunities and valuing each individual’s contribution to the school community.

We work together, positively and in a mutually supportive manner, to provide an environment where the needs of each pupil are met.

We recognise the importance of developing pupils’ Social Communication and Emotional Regulation so each pupil can develop the skills necessary for life after school and in the community.

We are ambitious and encourage every pupil to reach their full potential. We develop the self-esteem, self-awareness and confidence of every pupil.

We provide a stimulating, challenging, varied and rewarding learning environment in a happy and encouraging atmosphere.

We value learning and provide a broad, balanced, developmentally-appropriate and relevant curriculum, appropriate to the needs of each pupil.

We work in partnership and collaboration, ensuring successful partnerships between school, parents and carers.
