Fitzwaryn School
On Friday I visited Fitzwaryn School to celebrate its 40th anniversary. The school is a special needs school based in Wantage and Grove. In 40 years it has had just three heads, the second and third being deputy heads who succeeded their predecessor. It's an example of the dedication and commitment Fitzwaryn inspires. It's a wonderful school which I have fought for in the past - first to secure its early years admissions, and then to help it provide post-16 education. Now its future seems completely secure - there is a huge building programme, with three new classes completed, a new sensory theatre and more to come. Fitzwaryn is a jewel in Oxfordshire's crown.
