This welcome booklet gives an overview of Nightingale Priory Lane and what the curriculum, therapeutical and enrichment programme offered.
The Department for Education approved a proposal for Nightingale Community Academy (NCA) to open a satellite site on Priory Lane in January 2026.
NCA is a special school in Wandsworth and all pupils have an Educational Health Care Plan with Social Emotional and Mental Health Needs (SEMH). The main site on Beechcroft Road, SW17 is for boys aged aged 5 to 19 and the new site, Nightingale Priory Lane, is situated on Priory Lane, SW15 for boys and girls of secondary age who have SEMH needs
NCA works closely with the London Borough of Wandsworth to ensure its offer meets the local requirements and complements other local provisions. Wandsworth Council identified a need for more special school places to be provided locally for pupils whose needs could be met by the specialist team at NCA. NCA is working with Wandsworth Council to refurbish the site formerly occupied by Paddock School, which is now vacant, and could be adapted to provide places for the additional special school places.
The Council has asked Orchard Hill College Academy Trust (OHCAT) and NCA to open a satellite site and provide up to 72 secondary places for boys and girls in a phased build up over three years from Summer Term 2026.
