Some quotes from His Majesty’s Inspector from May 2023 Inspection of Serenity School Coulsdon:                “Pupils love coming to Serenity School. They described their experiences very positively, saying that they are happy and feel safe”.                “Pupils thrive here in so many different ways. Often, their previous experiences of school have been negative. Leaders know that time is precious. They have unrelenting aspirations for every pupil”.                “Pupils’ personal development is exceptional. The school’s approach to personal, social, health and economic education has been well thought out. Pupils learn a plethora of important topics in their personal and social development lessons”.

Welcome from the Executive Headteacher

Welcome to Serenity School Coulsdon.

We are an Outstanding OFSTED provider, for girls and boys aged 11-19 who have a wide range of SEND needs, ranging from autism spectrum conditions to those with cognition and learning difficulties. Serenity school has a moral purpose of meeting the academic, behavioural, therapeutic and vocational needs of all of our students.

Since our inception in 2018, Serenity has seen great growth. From working with three pupils on our site on South End road in Croydon, to now being at capacity working with 90 pupils and families.

During our OFSTED inspection in May 2023 the inspector shared some brilliant insight on Serenity Coulsdon “Pupils love coming to Serenity School, “Staff have unrelenting aspiration for every student” and “Pupils, personal development is exceptional. These were just some of amazing quotes from our inspection, where the school was rated outstanding in all areas.

At Serenity Coulsdon, we pride ourselves in creating a safe and happy environment for pupils, where we motivate and challenge rigorously to ensure everyone meets their full potential.

We are resolute in determination to provide an outstanding education for all of our pupils, and I am extremely proud that this has been recognised by OFSTED.

Latest News

We are very proud of all the Year 11 pupils for their determination, resilience, and wonderful teamwork over the past year(s). Throughout the two lockdowns, the young people at our school have continued to work hard, progress and attain.

Education

We specialise in academic and therapeutic methods to motivate SEND students who struggle to engage with mainstream school. We also excel in re-engaging students who for some reason have become a school non-attender, or home tuition.

Information

All you need to know about our policies – from first aid, safeguarding to accessibility. A useful area for parents/guardians to keep informed with procedures.

Through experiences gained we recognise that the well-being and academic achievement of the majority of young people is significantly accelerated by addressing the root causes of behavioural, emotional, social difficulties, and without this some young people simply cannot access education. Inclusion has many forms but one principle, the right of a person to have the same opportunities and respect as anyone else.

We find pleasure through succeeding in our learning: building skills, knowledge and understanding. We actively promote our belief that each child and adult feel valued for their own personal worth and contribution.
