A school for children with hearing and communication difficulties has a secure future thanks to an agreement between Camden’s Local Education Authority and the Rayners Special Education Trust, set up last year to safeguard the school and expand its services.
Buckinghamshire-based Penn School looked set for closure after the authority decided it could no longer sustain it due to the falling number of attending pupils.
But earlier this month, Camden Council announced that the school, which has the capacity to teach 60 children suffering from physical disabilities, deafness and other communication problems, will be bought by the Trust and taken over in June this year.
