About

Melksham House School is a specialist educational provision that will provide education for children and young people from the age of 4-16 with complex social, emotional and/or mental health/medical needs which have prevented them from successfully engaging in or attending school. We are situated in the heart of Melksham, adjacent to the community campus .

Our vision is clear no barriers, only potential . Our vision will be underpinned by the application of a consistent model and approach. Building trustwith children and young people is a core component of our model. Without trust, the child or young person won't feel safe, which will in turn remove their opportunities to engage positively and build emotional resilience.

Without this secure base the child or young person will not learn, know or remember, limiting progress through the planned curriculum. Our core model of support will ensure the child or young person will build trust, feel safe and subsequently learn.
