About

It is both my pleasure and honour to lead the secondary provision at this glorious, 34-acre site, as Headteacher here at Aurora Eccles. We recognise that every young person comes to us via their own unique path, but that what unites them is the need for a different environment and approach to teaching.

We therefore strive to do different , while remaining ambitious for what each of our students can achieve. Our learning model is informed by the national curriculum, augmented with additional options and experiences designed to facilitate communication and interaction between students, such as life skills development classes and The Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

We pride ourselves on building positive relationships with our students and their families, and we look forward to showing you around our wonderful site and welcoming you into our community here at Aurora Eccles.

As Principal of the site that Aurora Eccles shares with its primary counterpart, Aurora White House School, I am delighted to introduce you to our wonderful school community.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
