About us
At Together Trust we believe everybody deserves an equal chance in life. There are no exceptions. We provide a wide range of support services including fostering, residential, community and family support. We also provide specialist educational support through our schools and colleges.
Inscape House School is a specialist school for children with autistic spectrum disorders and related conditions, based on our Campus in Cheadle. Supporting students aged 5 – 19, we recognise their potential, maximise independence and celebrate achievements. Our class sizes are small and we have an extensive therapeutic team and clinical services, who are able to offer all of our students individualised learning programmes. Each student has access to psychologists, positive behaviour practitioners, speech and language therapists and occupational therapists, should they need them.
We have an exciting opportunity for an ambitious headteacher to continue in leading Inscape’s journey towards achieving excellence.
