Types of schools and children's homes

Outstanding Ofsted Ratings

Our outstanding Ofsted judgements and award-winning schools and children’s homes offer inspirational learning and living environments for every child and make us the leading provider of our type.

Going for gold

It is impossible to measure the pride we have in the amazing achievements of our children and young people. With the support and commitment of their families and our staff, we see endless stories of success.

One such example is Kieron’s story, an ex-pupil of our Lakeside School. In this short video, his mum and a member of the school’s staff talk warmly about Kieron’s journey and how he is now focused on making it to the 2024 Olympic Games.

He’s a champion already in our eyes!

I was impressed with the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the lovely relationships you have built with the young people.

Social Worker

As soon I entered the home I was made to feel welcome by others, nothing was too much for them.
