Esland Bedford School
ESLAND BEDFORD SCHOOL
Esland Bedford School is an independent, co-educational special school with spaces available to children aged from 10-15.
We offer high-quality education to 8 to 18-year-olds with a range of needs, including Autistic Spectrum Condition (ASC), Speech Language and Communication Needs (SLCN), anxiety and emotionally based school avoidance, and Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs (SEMH).
At Esland Bedford School, we provide an inspirational learning environment where students are supported and encouraged to actively participate in learning opportunities.
We have our own unique identity, ethos, and approach to our curriculum, and we use the Turning the Curve™ education model to support students who, depending on their background and circumstances, may require a more personalised route in returning to full time education. Additionally, we have this September opened a new, purpose built Nurture provision to help support younger pupils back to full time education following extended periods of time outside the classroom.
We understand every student has been on a unique journey that’s led them to join our school, which is why we work hard to cultivate a warm, welcoming, and supportive culture that recognises and celebrates their achievements.
Our aim is to help students gain a range of academic qualifications and social skills that will stay with them throughout their adult life. Their progress in these areas will form the foundation of future success in their employment and independence and shape them into effective members of their local communities.
We offer regular open mornings through the year to allow families to sample the work that we do. Families can visit our website to register an interest in our school and receive an invite to our next available open morning.
