Principal Tracy Whitehurst from Aurora Hanley School in Bucknall has been recognised with a Silver Award in the Pearson National Teaching Awards. Selected from thousands of nominees, the win highlights the remarkable impact she has on shaping the lives of the young people in her care.
Head of School Kirsty Jockel said: “We're thrilled with the outcome of our first full inspection, especially as we’ve been open for less than a year. I’ve had great support from staff, students and parents who have all contributed to the success of the school.”
On 17 April, a new special school for pupils aged 5-19 opens in Wilmslow, Cheshire.
Aurora Summerfields will support young people with complex communication and social needs typically associated with Autism Spectrum Conditions.
The school will benefit from close links with Aurora Hanley in Stoke, which is rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
