Welcome to Highfield Littleport Academy

All of our pupils have Education, Health and Care Plans, which will identify a significant and complex learning difficulties. Some may have associated behavioural problems, physical disabilities, sensory, communication or medical needs. The school is situated on the edge of the Fenland town Littleport in Cambridgeshire. It occupies large and attractively landscaped grounds and has a wealth of resources such as a hydrotherapy pool and well equipped sports hall. We enjoy very good relationships with local mainstream schools and are part of the Cambridgeshire Active Learning Trust hub. We all benefit from each others expertise, experiences, facilities and resources, working together to support inclusive practices.
