Teaching & academics

As an independent school, Fletewood operates outside the state system and sets its own fees. More than a fifth of pupils receive some form of SEN support, a notably high proportion that suggests the school is used to working closely with children who need additional help. Its very small size lends itself to individual attention rather than large, anonymous year groups.
