Opportunity

Welcome to Notton House Academy. I am sure you are excited about learning more about the wonderful educational and residential provision that we provide to vulnerable young people aged 8-19. Pupils with an EHCP (Educational and Health Care Plan) are referred to Notton House due to their specific social and emotional needs. Many of our young people have experienced adverse childhood experiences others have a diagnosis of Autism ADHD and many have speech language and communication needs; but all of our young people require a bespoke and therapeutic programme in order to be happy to achieve and succeed and to eventually to lead a healthy and independent life.

Notton House is situated in leafy Wiltshire between Chippenham and Lacock. The site itself is stunning with huge grounds a forest school area poly tunnel and raised gardening beds for each class an outdoor gym and low level traversing wall. Inside the Grade II listed building are 39 bedrooms many with en-suites a cinema room a fitness suite a sensory room and a gaming suite. The art room food technology suite and lower school classes including a private sensory garden are also situated within the old building. Within the purpose built and more modern education block there are a number of classrooms a sensory room a science lab a library and a music room. Finally there are two independent living houses for pupils who can demonstrate they are moving towards adulthood and independence and who can be trusted to budget cook clean and take care of themselves and others.
