East Park has provided education and supported accommodation to children and young people with additional support needs, including autism, since 1874.

East Park school provides education to children and young people between the ages of 5 and 19 with additional support needs. All pupils have a significant learning difficulty coupled with additional disabilities including physical disability, sensory impairment, ADHD, attachment disorder, autistic spectrum disorders and challenging behaviour. A large proportion of the pupils are on the autistic spectrum and require specialist techniques and strategies in order to minimise the impact of their barriers to learning. East Park provides comprehensive and appropriate learning environments and opportunities for this group of children/ young people through: personal learning plans, individual and group teaching and learning, elaborated curriculum based on the Curriculum for Excellence, specialised resources and equipment, and use of community facilities and amenities.
