A warm welcome to our school. We are a specialist provision for children aged 3-11 years who have complex educational needs as defined in their EHCP. We pride ourselves on being a vibrant, caring and a considerate school. We aim for every child to excel in every aspect of their development and school life. Every child is an individual and is treated with dignity and respect.
We achieve this because our compassionate staff are experts in their field as educationalists and specialists in the challenges that our children face. We are well resourced with innovative and technological equipment and share a stimulating and engaging learning environment.
We are extremely proud to be leaders at Old Hall School and extend a warm welcome whether you are an existing parent or considering us as a partner in your child's future.
