Sept 14, 2018, Windsor Express: Forest Bridge School submits Braywick Road planning application https://www.windsorexpress.co.uk/gallery/maidenhead/135906/forest-bridge-school-submits-braywick-road-planning-application.html A special educational needs school will move to land currently used by a shooting club if councillors sanction the plans. Forest Bridge School wants to relocate because its current site, in Chiltern Road, is ‘totally unsuited’ to the educational needs of children with autism spectrum disorder, according to a planning statement. … The school will fit 96 pupils aged between four and 16 across classes of eight pupils, with 120 members of staff working there. … Elizabeth Farnden, headteacher at Forest Bridge, said: “We are really excited that planning for our new build has now been submitted. “If all goes well, we are hoping to be in our purpose-built school by September 2020. “This will mean we will have more pupil places available to meet the needs of children with autism through our offer of an individualised curriculum based on applied behaviour analysis.” …
