"Where Autism is a strength and not a weakness"

Our Team


Our school provides a nurturing and flexible educational environment, for young people who will benefit from a specialist provision that works together with local mainstream schools. We believe that a child’s learning differences should not prevent them from achieving and fulfilling their own personal potential.
