The Bridge School

Headteacher’s Welcome

Welcome to The Bridge School, we are a specialist provision catering for children from 4-16 with severe learning difficulties, in Ipswich, part of Unity Schools Partnership.

I am incredibly proud to be the Headteacher of such as a diverse and inclusive school, recently rated ‘Good’ in all areas by Ofsted.

Pupils are at the heart of our community and we strive continuously to offer them the best opportunities and access to experiences which enhance both their wellbeing and educational outcomes.

All pupils attending The Bridge School have an EHCP and this forms the basis of their educational offer. Alongside this our creative curriculum allows opportunities, at all levels, to succeed and promote the enjoyment of learning.

Our learning environment is conducive to allowing pupils space and access to explore, to develop independence and access to equipment and therapies, it celebrates achievement and promotes a sense of belonging and identity.

The school welcomes agency working with multiple professionals and seeks to support parents in all areas of their child’s development, creating a holistic approach around each child.

Please do feel free to book an informal chat / visit if you have any queries.

The calm, friendly welcoming atmosphere is evident on arrival and the amazing young people you will discover are testament to our success.
