The Redway School is an all-age (2-19) state special school for children and young people who experience severe learning difficulties. It makes provision for those who need to be educated in a special school in Milton Keynes and its close environs. Located in Netherfield, Milton Keynes, southern central England and is so called because it adjoins two "Redways" of the Milton Keynes redway system. Redways are an approximately 170-mile (270 km) network of cycleways/paths for cyclists and pedestrians. They are generally surfaced with red tarmac, and criss-cross most of the city. Ruth Sylvester is the school's second headteacher. She took up her post in September 2005. The school is at the present to time secure, however the local authority, in common with all other ones, has to keep its special schools under regular review. == History == The school opened on 26 April 1993, upon the closure of Oliver Wells (Physical Difficulties) and Queens (Severe Learning Difficulties) Schools. Until September 1993, the school had two sites, in Netherfield and at the Queens campus on Whalley Drive. From September 1993 and until about February/March 1997 the school occupied the Whalley Drive site whilst the Netherfield site was extended and refurbished. The reason that the extension and refurbishment took so long was that the first scheme was not allowed to go ahead. It was called off in January 1994 by the Department for Education (DfE). This was because the local education authority, it was then Buckinghamshire County Council, had not complied with all the DfE requests and had not listened to the parents. From 1 April 1997 the school became the responsibility of Milton Keynes Council. In February 2003 OFSTED's annual report named The Redway as a "particularly successful school".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Standards and Quality in Education 2000/01 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Redway School, Milton Keynes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
