Mrs Clark

Bridge Manager

Autism Champion and Mental Health Champion

Mrs Clark is our Autism Champion and is a key worker for our ASD students. The Bridge is a safe space for those students. Lots of students check in with Mrs Clark in the morning and at the end of school, this often helps them focus and offload at the end of a day. Mrs Dawson is our link within the ASET team and she works closely with Mrs Clark and our ASD students.
