Welcome from the Headteacher
It is with great pride and excitement that I introduce myself as the new Headteacher of Serenity School Crawley, starting in September 2024. My journey with Serenity began in 2020 at our flagship school in Croydon, which later became Serenity School Coulsdon. During my time there, I had the privilege of being part of the leadership team, serving as Assistant Headteacher and then Deputy Headteacher for the last two years. Together, we achieved an Ofsted Outstanding rating, an accomplishment that fills me with immense pride. I now bring that experience, along with a deep commitment to fostering an environment where every student can thrive, to Serenity School Crawley.
Our school is founded on the principles of inclusion, independence, and self-worth. These values are not just words but the very essence of what we stand for. Every child at Serenity School Crawley, regardless of their background or experiences, deserves to feel valued, capable, and empowered to reach their full potential. My mission is to ensure that each student experiences an education that challenges them while also nurturing their personal growth.
At Serenity School Crawley, we offer a holistic education for boys and girls aged 5-18 with a wide range of SEND needs. We are deeply committed to teaching children the importance of taking care of themselves, each other, their learning, their community, and their future. Our approach is centred on the individual, providing a personalised curriculum that fosters academic success while also supporting social and emotional development. We are dedicated to helping our pupils understand their emotions, communicate effectively, and grow into confident, resilient, and respectful individuals.
I greatly value the vital role that parents and carers play in their children’s education, and I am eager to build a strong partnership with you to ensure your child’s success and happiness. Your ideas and feedback are always welcome as we work together to continuously improve our school.
I am excited about the journey ahead and I look forward to leading Serenity School Crawley and to the successes we will achieve together.
