kedleston schools
It’s been more than 15 years since Kedleston was “born”. Developed by Paul
Brosnan and Tony Hurran, the vision was simple; to provide high quality
schooling and care environments for the children the traditional system does not
work for. Our early ethos (which continues today) was one of mutual
collaboration and hard work between staff, pupils and other stakeholders. We
began by acquiring a majority stake-holding at Wings School Cumbria where Paul
and Tony worked with the team there to substantially improve the facilities.
This included developing a state-of-the-art gymnasium to nurture the
considerable talents of the school’s many very able sportsmen and sportswomen -
as it continues to do today. As demand for the quality services provided by
Kedleston grew, so did our group. We now have 17 schools and homes across
England, some of which were developed as completely new bespoke provisions.
Others were acquired by the group as early-stage developments from founders who
shared the same ethos.
