meadowcroft residential schools
West Yorkshire
An independent special school for young people who have a Statement of Special
Educational Needs (SSEN) or EHC Plan for social, emotional and behavioural
difficulties. Welcome to Meadowcroft School Our Approach Secure, consistent and
structured environment All our children have complex social, emotional and
mental health needs and many have additional severe learning and communication
difficulties. We look beyond the issues and problems the children come to us
with and see their potential within. It is our job to provide a secure,
consistent, structured environment where children can work to overcome and
manage those issues in order to engage in education and achieve their potential.
Highly trained, committed and caring staff Our dedicated team of staff provide
the high levels of consistency and care our children need. They are specialists
in their fields, with extensive experience of working with children who have
complex needs. We work together to share knowledge and involve other experts and
professionals to give our young people the start in life that so many have been
denied until this point. Creative, engaging, appropriate education The children
we support have struggled to engage in formal education, so we look for
alternative ways to help them gain the vital skills and knowledge they need for
the future. We keep class sizes very small, provide additional support for all
children who need it and give young people the space to develop at their own
pace. Wherever possible, we involve the children in outdoor learning and give
them more vocational options as they progress within the school. We go to great
lengths to keep our children engaged and, if they are unable to get to school,
then our teachers will take the lessons to them at home. What We Offer For Local
