Accomplished, experienced and supportive

The team at Esland Daven School have been handpicked to deliver the best education, culture, and therapeutic care for our students.

Our headteacher is a highly experienced leader with a background in mainstream, independent and special needs education. They are joined by an excellent team with a range of experience, skills and talents that support and build the foundations of the school.

The team includes a SENDCO (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Coordinator), a selection of teachers from all Key Stages, support staff and tutors. They have a wide range of specialisms, including SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities), core curriculum subjects, well-being, trauma, outdoor education, vocational learning, behaviour support, and creative arts and play therapy.

Together, they form a dedicated network of support for our students, and the care, knowledge, and guidance they provide play a pivotal role in their future success.
