Headteacher Welcome

A Message from the Headteacher

I am delighted to introduce myself as Headteacher of Foreland Fields School.

We moved into our brand new school in February 2017 which has amazing facilities for the pupils/students both in and outdoors.

Foreland Fields School caters for around 220 pupils with Profound, Severe and Complex Needs including ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder). 

Foreland Fields is a happy school where we maximise each learning opportunity and celebrate childrens’ successes every step of the way. We strongly believe that all of our pupils have the capacity to learn and are entitled to the opportunity to learn. Through attending our school, all pupils and students have access to a quality education in order to enable them to learn.

Our school ethos promotes ‘Aspirational Personalised Learning’. We see children as individuals with differing needs and strengths. Our aim is to extend and support all children and help them to reach their full potential. We have high but realistic expectations and are ambitious for all of our pupils/students. Through our curriculum pathways we tailor the education to individual need, interest and aptitude so as to fulfil every young person’s potential.

Foreland Fields School is a Rights Respecting School. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is at the heart of all our policies and practice.

Ofsted rate us as a Good school, but we are not content with that and strive to become Outstanding.

We are a friendly, ambitious and inclusive school and work hard to build a positive relationship with each child and their family. We strongly believe in working together with parents and carers and hope you will take advantage of the many opportunities to be involved in school life. 

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed. Please contact the school office (01843 863891) or e-mail foreland@foreland.kent.sch.uk to make an appointment.
