Welcome

Welcome to our School Website.

Kingfisher opened in 2001 as Oldham Metropolitan Borough’s only specialist primary provision for children with complex and severe special educational needs. The school originated from the amalgamation of three existing special schools: Ferney Field, Foxdenton and Gorse Bank. In addition, the school provides support services to mainstream primary schools, as part of the Local Authority’s inclusion agenda. The school is located in the Chadderton area of Oldham and in addition to educating children from all areas of Oldham, the school also receives children from neighbouring Boroughs.

Kingfisher is a vibrant community where the children’s achievements are celebrated throughout the school. It is a great place to be as the relationships throughout the school reflect the positive attitudes of all in the Kingfisher community. Many thanks for visiting our website: we hope that you enjoy learning about our school.
