About

At New Barn School we support students between the ages of 6 and 19 years of age who have a range of social, emotional and mental health needs. Our aim is very simple: we want to equip every child with the skills, knowledge and confidence that they need to be successful in their future.

Many children come to us with very complex needs, communication difficulties and associated challenging behaviour. We always look beyond the issues and potential barriers to learning and recognise the innate potential within. We invest time with each individual child to recognise and understand their learning needs so that we can put in place the right support package.

We pride ourselves on preparing our pupils for the next stage of their lives – not just academically but socially and emotionally and all of our pupils are encouraged to reach high standards in every aspect.

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