Excellence in Special Educational Needs

Welburn Hall has a wonderful memory of being featured on television when Channel 5’s Yorkshire Vet, Peter, visited the school to meet our pupils and talk about our new goats.
His visit created a real buzz within the school community, as pupils had the chance to ask questions, share their knowledge and proudly show off their animals. The appearance on TV was a special moment that continues to be remembered as an exciting chapter in the school’s history, celebrating both our pupils’ enthusiasm and our unique learning environment.
