About

Light Years School is proud to be part of Light Years Education Ltd. Thank you for your interest in Light Years School. We are an organisation deeply committed to improving the lives of children and young people with a range of special educational needs. Light Years School was founded to provide safe and nurturing school environment in which children could thrive.

We place as much importance on a child's academic progress as we do their emotional and personal growth. Our motto; start small, grow tall symbolises the individual journey every child makes during their time at one of our schools. Our inclusive school starts with our inclusive culture, develops through our curriculum and thrives in our environment.

Our values ; Understanding, Acceptance, Celebrate, Resilience, Courage and Kindness , form the foundation for how our school operates and we place the child at the centre of every decision we make. We are proud to have been recognised by Ofsted as an Outstanding education provider and look forward to growing as a school and supporting many more children in the future.
