We specialise in supporting children with a wide range of learning difficulties and disabilities, including cerebral palsy, visual impairment, hearing impairment, and complex medical needs. We also provide secondary provision for children with social, speech, and language communication difficulties.
Recognised as one of the leading centres for Conductive Education in the UK, we offer extensive specialist facilities and are committed to providing an exceptional learning environment. Children are encouraged to actively develop a range of essential foundation skills that will support their future learning.
Teaching follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, embedded within a Conductive Education framework and supported by fully integrated therapy. Provision is delivered by a skilled trans-disciplinary team. Children are challenged and supported to learn through play, with active participation fostered within a structured daily routine.
Small group learning, combined with a high staff-to-pupil ratio, ensures a dynamic and individualised approach to education. Tasks are broken down into manageable steps, giving each child frequent opportunities to participate as an active learner and to experience success.
