Welcome to Wishmore Cross School
 
 
“Wishmore Cross is a good school” (Ofsted 2011)
 
Wishmore Cross School is a residential special school for up to 60 boys aged 11 to 16 years who have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties.  We provide a highly effective and individual package of education, care and pastoral support to young people who may have only negative experiences of school.  A safe, caring environment supported by high levels of staffing ensures that each pupil has the opportunity to make progress and achieve their full potential.
 
“There have been year on year improvements in students’ academic qualifications that enable them to move successfully into further education, training or the world of work”
(Ofsted 2011)
 
Our purpose built residential unit provides a homely environment for up to 24 pupils, 4 nights per week.  Each unit has its own kitchen, lounge and bathrooms which enables pupils to develop personal independence skills.
 
“Boarders receive outstanding individual support from the residential staff” (Ofsted 2011).
 
I hope that you will find our website useful and informative; we welcome visits and enquiries to our school.
