Who we are

About Dawn House School:

Dawn House School is a day and residential school that supports children and young people aged 5 to 19 who have complex speech and language challenges that are barriers to their learning. We have been judged by Ofsted as ‘Outstanding’ since 2015.

What we do:

We provide a combination of specialised education, therapy and care, creating a community of happy, independent, and confident communicators. We enable children with complex speech and language challenges to look to the future with confidence.

We are committed to integrating outstanding education and in-house therapy for all pupils in a highly specialist environment where their speech and language challenges do not prevent them from learning. We work hard to ensure that children receive an appropriate curriculum, are happy and engaged, and take part in a range of experiences.

Our mission:

Dawn House School achieves all this by supporting children with complex speech and language challenges to engage, develop, communicate and aspire.

  • Engage Dive into everything school has to offer! Get involved, embrace every opportunity, and bring your learning to life.
  • Develop Take on challenges with confidence, and watch your skills grow and shine in every area.
  • Communicate Choose positive words, support each other, ask for help when needed, and listen to everyone’s voice.
  • Aspire Believe in yourself, reach beyond what you thought possible, and go after your goals with passion and purpose.
