Mayfield School is for pupils with severe and profound learning difficulties, aged 3 – 19. The main school site is purpose built and includes sensory and soft play rooms, a hydrotherapy pool, specialist curriculum classrooms and spacious grounds which are currently being developed. The school enjoys pleasant surroundings and is close to two other schools, a Children’s Centre and local amenities such as parks and shops.

All members of the school are very proud to belong to it because it is a caring, safe, supportive and fun place to be. They are committed to the rights of their young people to receive an appropriate and meaningful education and believe that it is essential to celebrate the smallest steps of achievement. They are also committed to safeguarding their pupils through policy and practices that are clearly designed to protect them from harm.

We have 3 sites:

• Mayfield School
• Mayfield College  (aged 15 – 19)
• Mayfield Chestnut (aged 5 – 11)
