Welcome!
This website is intended to give information to families, professionals and the community about the work of our establishment.
At Willowbank School, we aim to provide a happy, safe, stimulating, fun environment for learning. We encourage, support, motivate and challenge pupils and young people to develop new skills and build on existing talents, strengths and interests and every opportunity is given for each pupil to be successful and to meet their individual potential both in and out of school.
“Every child of school age has the right to a school education provided by an education authority.”
(Standards in Scotland’s Schools etc. Act 2000)
At Willowbank equality of opportunity and a sense of fairness form the basis of our approach. Every pupil has additional support needs and is valued for the contribution they make to the school, local and wider community. We ensure that all pupils’ educational, care and medical needs are met to allow all to “be the best you can be”.
We pride ourselves on the caring and supportive ethos which permeates throughout the school. This supportive ethos extends to not only our pupils but also to staff and families. Visitors are always impressed by the welcoming atmosphere.
Partnerships are extremely important to us. We have an open door policy at Willowbank and all families and visitors are very welcome.
We look forward to welcoming you to our establishment.
Mrs Tracy Smallwood
Head Teacher
