Welcome to Isebrook School

Isebrook School proudly supports students aged 11 to 18 (Years 7 to 13), with a specialist focus on Cognition and Learning.

Our curriculum is built around the key principles of 'Preparation for Adulthood', helping every student develop the skills and confidence they need for life beyond school. We understand that each learner is unique, so we adapt our approach in a variety of ways to meet individual needs.

We offer a wide range of on-site therapies, including:

  • Occupational Therapy
  • Physiotherapy
  • Access to privately provided speech and language therapy
  • Pastoral support

This ensures that every student receives what they need for their holistic development.

Our facilities and strong partnerships with families, local professionals, and the community enable us to deliver high-quality education and care for all our students.
