Message from the Head
A very warm welcome to Landon School, Harmondsworth.
Landon School is a specialist independent setting for children and young people with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), and we specialise in young people with Autism and Severe Learning Difficulties. At Landon, we place every learner at the heart of our practice, celebrating their individuality and supporting them to thrive both within and beyond the classroom.
Our vision is clear: to create a safe, nurturing, and ambitious environment where pupils are valued for who they are and challenged to achieve their very best. Everything we do is underpinned by our simple but powerful ethos: Safe, Happy, Learning. These three words capture our belief that children learn best when they feel secure, when they are valued and supported, and when their education is engaging, meaningful, and inspiring.
A defining feature of Landon School is our multi-disciplinary approach. Alongside highly skilled teachers and support staff, pupils benefit from input from therapists and external specialists. Together, we provide a holistic programme that develops core skills for independence, communication, and personal growth.
Although still a young school, Landon has already established a strong foundation built on care, consistency, and collaboration. Our curriculum is tailored to the needs of our young people, founded on expert practice and research-based approaches that we use to support our learners to overcome their challenges and achieve their full potential.
We are proud of our pupils and families, who are central to our journey, and of our staff, whose dedication ensures that Landon is a place where children feel safe, respected, and inspired to succeed.
If you are exploring whether Landon School might be the right fit for your child, I encourage you to connect with your local authority SEND team and ask them to consult with us. We would be delighted to discuss how we can support your child to achieve their potential.
It is a privilege to join Landon School as Headteacher from September 2025. I am excited to work with our community as we continue to build and grow a school that truly makes a difference in the lives of young people and their families.
