Dovedale is an 81 place provision for pupils with a primary need of Autism.  Our pupils also often experience co-morbid conditions such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Dyslexia and Dyspraxia; amongst others.  Our referrals are made via the local authority (SENAR), followed by an assessment of the pupil to ensure our provision can meet their needs.

The young people who attend James Brindley Academy don’t wear school uniforms.
