Brookfield House School is a special school for very special children. You will find highly-trained, caring staff who will work with you and your child to enable them to reach their maximum potential.

We take children aged 3–16 with a wide range of physical disabilities, complex medical needs or hearing impairments.

Pupils have a range of academic achievements from P Levels to GCSE.

The school is organised into three departments; the Primary (including Foundation Stage) and Secondary departments are located on the main site in Alders Avenue.

Every child at Brookfield House comes with unique and often highly complex individual needs.

That's why we provide each one with the care, guidance and support they need to concentrate on learning and enjoying school life to the full.

We've brought together a wide range of professional staff who work collaboratively to provide a comprehensive and integrated service. They have a comprehensive knowledge of each child and work effectively as a team to provide for the needs of each child.


There's a School Nurse on site who provides medical supervision and medication where appropriate throughout the school day.


The Physiotherapy Service works closely with children either in the classroom or in individual treatment sessions.


Speech and Language Therapists work with individuals and groups of pupils to improve and extend their communication skills. Occupational Therapists provide individual support to pupils, as required.


We have high expectations of pupils and believe that everyone achieves their best when they enjoy learning and feel valued.

Pupils are encouraged to use their voice to express their ideas and opinions to the Student Council enabling them to make a positive contribution to the improvement of school life.
