➜ Cambian New Elizabethan School Prospectus

Cambian New Elizabethan School is an independent specialist school that offers placements for students aged 7-19 years with a primary diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder, and related conditions or diagnoses.

Set in large, private grounds amid a campus of historic buildings in rural Hartlebury, Worcestershire, the school is a relaxing place of learning, where young people receive the specialist education and multi-disciplinary care they need.

The school consists of small class groups, creating a supportive and relaxing environment where students can learn and achieve their personal best.

Students have access to Cambian's diverse, multi-disciplinary clinical team.  Having such a range of support available, delivered by experienced practitioners is a great benefit in supporting our individuals to remove barriers and to reach their full potential.

Individual learning programmes

At Cambian New Elizabethan School, each child receives an individualised education programme, which is tailored to meet their specific needs and is supported by a therapy team that includes psychology, occupational therapy, specialist speech and language therapy, mental health practitioner, therapy assistant and family support worker who work in conjunction with the education staff.

The school day is organised to provide for both individual and group work for academic, personal and social skills to be developed. Full use is made of the resources of the local environment, with educational programmes taking individuals into the community for practical activities such as shopping, swimming, animal care study (equine therapy), interacting with people in the community, library visits and country walks.

Many of the school's services focus on anxiety reduction and improving communication skills through all of our therapists on site. Post-16 services are available on-site as well as linking with local colleges should this be required.

All members of staff are dedicated to helping every student achieve their potential through a personalised curriculum.  This approach is designed to assist the students in developing academic, social and life skills that will enable them to achieve the maximum amount of independence in their adult lives.
