About

The Orange Tree is an outstanding school that offers children aged 11 to 19 a specialised and tailored education that combines a rich and broad curriculum with excellent pastoral care As soon as you walk through the doors of the Orange Tree you can feel its warmth and generosity.

Our friendly and diverse community is one that is built on the trust – between students and staff, between students and families, and between everyone who works at the school – that the Orange Tree will always put the child at the heart of every action and decision.

The Orange Tree was established with the sole mission of executing the simple, but profound, idea that education should fit the needs of the child and not the other way round. We cater for children aged 11 to 19 who will thrive in a small, therapeutic, and nurturing environment.

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