About

Welcome to the Acorn School where the child is at the centre of every decision. It is a great pleasure to see the happiness of each pupil as they navigate their way through school life.

Our relatively small class sizes, strong parent-teacher relationships and specialised staff ensure that each pupil's individual needs are nurtured, enabling them to develop to their fullest potential. We have high expectations for all pupils, and our exciting curriculum inspires them to follow their dreams.

It is wonderful to see them develop into self-assured young people who have everything they need to go out into the world and make creative contributions to society. We would love to welcome you to come and see what makes The Acorn School so special, so please do contact us to arrange a visit, where you will have the opportunity to see our unique school in action.

I look forward to meeting you soon.
