There are 310 commissioned places across two sites in North West Birmingham – Heathfield Road in Handsworth and Wheeler Street in Lozells. The Heathfield Road site provides education for children in the early years and foundation stage (EYFS) and also provides all-age education for learners with autism. The Wheeler Street site is co-located with Holte School and Lozells Junior and Infant School and provides education for learners with cognition and learning needs or profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD).
