About

Vicky Vandervelde Family Support Manager Find out more Matt Demain Engagement Lead Find out more Kashif Qureshi Attendance & Intervention Officer Find out more Welcome to our school Welcome to our school Riverbank Primary School welcomes students between the age of 5 11 years, who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) in place.

We are a specialist school helping young children with social, emotional, behavioural and mental health challenges to re-engage with learning and make academic and social progress.

We specialise in providing a stimulating, safe environment in which children can learn through a varied and personalised curriculum that is led by the National Curriculum and the children's individual needs and interests. We offer a flexible and adaptive approach that is rooted in meeting the individual needs of each and every child.

Our aim is to develop and maintain an ethos where education is unquestionably valued as a means to success.
