Our School
Gwenllian Education Centre provides a individualised and person centred curriculum to meet the social and behavioural needs of our pupils, promoting independence and success.
Utilising the science of ABA we ensure pupils are provided with suitable and functional educational experiences. Monitoring the success of pupils progress and using specialist assessment tools to assess pupils, we ensure they are supported effectively to achieve their very best.
