Access School is an innovative SEN school in Shropshire where children are encouraged to be the best they can be.
“Pupils feel truly valued by the staff. For many who previously struggled at school, starting at Access is a fresh start. Here, they are welcomed, cared for and feel safe” Ofsted, 2019
Converted from a working farm in the heartland of rural Shropshire, we have established a fantastic reputation as a vibrant, pro-active school dedicated to achieving the best outcomes for our pupils.
The school setting, near Wem, is uniquely therapeutic and calming. Pupils who have struggled in traditional mainstream settings are helped to stabilise and thrive in a therapeutic learning environment.
With a qualified therapist on-site and a talented team of teachers dedicated to improving children’s lives, Access School is well equipped to support young people with special educational needs.
The school offers bespoke education for children aged 6-16 with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH), learning difficulties (LD) and mild learning difficulties (MLD). Young people with attachment difficulties, autism and ADHD have thrived in this learning environment, which includes a therapeutic village, sensory rooms and story massage among many other features.
