Welcome to our School


A very warm welcome to Willow Bank, we are a special school which provides education for pupils with social, emotional and mental health considerations.

We currently have 71 pupils on roll and enjoy working with pupils from Key Stage 2 to Key Stage 4. Our aim is to enable pupils to have a positive and exciting experience of education and equip them for their future.

Our pupils all have very different needs and we work hard to ensure that we provide the support they need to feel valued and respected, so that they can engage in rich learning experiences and prepare to be active citizens who contribute positively to society.

We hope that you find any information that you are looking for on our website but if you would like to know anything else please do get in touch.

Once again, welcome to our school.

Our Vision

To be a centre of best practice for pupils with SEMH needs, providing a safe space to engage in a culture of learning, personal growth and achieving to the best of our abilities, working together as part of the Willow Bank Community.

We believe that:

  • Learning to respect ourselves, others and the school environment is the foundation of preparedness for adulthood (LEARN)
  • Every step of personal growth is a victory, no matter how small (GROW)
  • All children love to learn, and once we've captured their interest, we can support them to achieve to the best of their ability (ACHIEVE)
  • Every child is an individual, and developing a trusting, positive relationship with each pupil is the key to engagement in education (TOGETHER)
