With 160 pupils and over 100 teaching and support staff, we have high levels of staffing to ensure that all pupils receive excellent care, guidance and support, while our multi-disciplinary team, which includes specially trained staff in nursing, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy, works closely together to ensure that pupils make progress they are able to make.

Our aim is to create a supportive and caring environment for children and young people from across the Redcar and Cleveland Borough, as well as surrounding boroughs. Pupils are admitted throughout the year on an individual basis, via referrals from the local authority.

Our facilities include Early Years Foundation Stage provision, a thriving 14-19 unit and specialist provision for pupils with profound and multiple learning difficulties as well as those with an autistic spectrum condition. In addition, we are proud of our specialist resources, which include a hydrotherapy pool, soft play area, ICT suite, sensory integration rooms and sensory light rooms.

KTS Academy is a Unicef Rights Respecting School and achieved the Gold Rights Respecting Schools Award in 2019.
