At Little Pippins we believe in supporting children to become confident, competent and independent learners. If your child has Special Education Needs and/or Disabilities we could be delighted to work along side you to help them fulfil their full potential. Our purpose built building has wheelchair access and our highly qualified staff share a wealth of knowledge and experience of working with children with particular needs and in line with Oxfordshire’s Local SEN offer.
