  • After The Bell - SEND Support Series: Speaking with SEND School - Georgie speaks to Chris Britten from Ysgol Y Deri

    At Connex Education, we work closely with all our teaching staff and schools, which is why we are very excited about the start of Series 2 of “A Special School” tonight on BBC One and iPlayer. The series takes viewers behind the classroom door for the first time, allowing cameras to capture the reality of life in Britain's biggest special school, pushing boundaries and challenging misconceptions. This series focuses on a fantastic school Ysgol Y Deri in Penarth, just outside Cardiff, which our welsh brand @ConnexEducationWales 󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿have had the pleasure of working with and has been providing staff to for many years now.


    In a special re-wind, we take a look back at when our Managing Director of Connex Academy & Director of Learning and Development, Georgie McIntyre, sat down with the head teacher of Ysgol Y Deri, Chris Britten. There are plenty of laughs and a few tears as Chris talks about the realities of working in one of Britain's largest special schools.
