About

ALP Leicester is an Independent Special Needs School catering for learners aged between 6 and 19. Our school is Ofsted registered and caters to 35 young people who have struggled in mainstream education due to their special educational needs.

Our unique selling point is that we offer small classes or one-to-one learning where the curriculum is tailored to the needs of the individual. We also recognise the importance of building up routines, relationships, respect, and trust to achieve successful teaching and learning.

ALP Leicester is on the same site as the Cedars Academy in Birstall, in what was previously known as Stonehill School. Our school is thriving with unique opportunities for young people. Primary and secondary/post-16 have their own designated space.

However, both can access the schools facilities which include a construction workshop, two libraries, a large garden, a playing field, a forest school, a music studio, a hairdressing suite, an art studio, individual classrooms, and group rooms.
