Welcome from the Chair of Governors, Ciaran Walsh.
At Skylarks School, we provide support for autistic children and young people aged 8 to 16 who may have additional needs. Our school offers access to a wide range of excellent educational opportunities, certified subjects, and national accreditations, as well as vocational and life skills courses, all designed to prepare our students for life beyond school.
We collaborate closely with parents and professionals to foster a nurturing, enriching learning environment. At Skylarks School, we believe the parent-teacher relationship should be characterized by partnership and collaboration, blending various forms of knowledge, experience, and care. From the moment we discuss enrollment to the day a child leaves, we are committed to supporting families and working together to ensure the best possible outcome for each child.
Welcome to Skylarks from the Headteacher, Barry New.
As Headteacher, I am delighted to welcome you to our school—a vibrant and inclusive community where every student is valued and supported. We are dedicated to creating a nurturing environment that encourages each young person to reach their full potential.
Our staff work tirelessly to provide personalised learning experiences, tailored support, and enriching opportunities for growth both inside and outside the classroom. Our approach to education focuses not only on academic achievement but also on skill development, self-improvement, and well-being, ensuring that our students become confident and active members of their communities.
On our website, you will find essential information about our ethos, specialised programs, and the various services we offer to support our students. We hope these resources help you understand our unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive, stimulating, and supportive educational experience.
Strong collaboration between home and school is key to student success, and we encourage you to stay connected, explore the information available, and reach out with any questions or suggestions. Your partnership and feedback are invaluable to us.
