Turney School Sports Premium

Turney pupils have an Autistic Spectrum Condition and associated learning needs. Most of our pupils are non-verbal and have significant speech, language and communication needs.

At Turney School we use the PE & Sports Premium to work in a multi-disciplinary approach with other professionals to support pupils individual needs.
