Gosden House School is a really happy community and a maintained special school for children between the ages of 4 and 16 years of age. The school caters for pupils with learning and additional needs (LAN), and other special educational needs, including language and communication.   We were delighted to be awarded Ofsted Outstanding in December 2020.

We are incredibly lucky to be set in 40 acres with a mansion house, walled garden and beautiful grounds and we have supported children with learning difficulties and increasingly complex needs for over 60 years. Our reputation for both educational attainment and pastoral care is reflected in the retention of our ‘Outstanding’ grading by Ofsted earlier this year.   Because of the wonderful setting we are in, we can ensure all our children can benefit from outdoor learning, creative play and really enjoying and learning from the environment.  

Our ethos is built around a child centred approach to learning, one founded on high expectations and innovation. We have a wonderful supportive team and we aim to tailor strategies and approaches that will meet the needs of each child, supporting them in all aspects of their development, nurturing self-esteem, confidence and aspiration. We deliver a modified National Curriculum, with a strong focus on core literacy, numeracy and communication skills.

We are committed to working in partnership with families, professionals and all agencies to maximise the opportunities for each child.
