Their ambition is to provide nurture, alongside high-quality education, for pupils who have struggled with education previously.

Pupils’ personal and social development are priorities for the school.

Therapy and nurture are at the heart of the school’s provision. Leaders are committed to supporting pupils to develop character, gain social skills and grow confidence. This vision is supported across the curriculum and other activities that the school offers.

I don’t think it is an overstatement to say that Stone Lodge has had a life changing impact not only for my child, but for my whole family. My child faced significant challenges in mainstream secondary; these affected her mental health this impacted on the whole family. To be in an environment where she is known and understood is just amazing. Of course we have ‘bumpy’ days – but these are FAR fewer.

She didn’t even want to go to school before now she can’t wait to go…

For so long I have felt that we have battled with a system that did not work for my child. Everything was a fight and more than once I considered withdrawing my child from education all together. I am so glad I didn’t. We are so lucky to have a place at Stone Lodge. A place where my child’s needs are understood and supported; a place where (finally) my child feels safe enough to learn; a place where my child is actively encouraged to be their true self; a place where learning and emotional well being are recognised as being intertwined and BOTH are prioritised. Thank you

They are an outstanding school and I am over the moon that my son attends this school.
