We are a specialist school for autistic children and young people aged 5–19, and I am proud to lead such a caring, committed, and ambitious community.

At Woodley, our focus is simple: helping every student enjoy a good quality of life, both now and as they grow into adulthood. We work hard to understand each child as an individual and to support them to develop communication, independence, and confidence in ways that truly matter to them.

Our school is built on strong relationships, consistency, and kindness. We offer a personalised, pathway based curriculum, with therapies and specialist support carefully woven through everyday learning, so that every student can feel safe, included, and successful.

We are a school that continues to grow and evolve, always learning and improving for the benefit of our students and families.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. If you’d like to know more about Woodley, please do get in touch — we would be very happy to hear from you.
