The school currently considers applications for pupils aged between 5 to 14 years.

Bright Futures School pupils will have a Statement of Special Educational Needs and a diagnosis of autism or Asperger’s Syndrome. They may well have good language skills but will have experienced difficulties in coping with the demands of other education settings. Parents will be seeking a school that provides a quiet environment, lots of personal 1:1 support and a different approach to learning.

We welcome informal contact from parents and professionals and encourage visits to the school before making any decision to apply for a place at the school.  Application will usually be made by the Local Authority.  School managers will then visit the prospective pupil and parents/carers at home to assess the suitability of the requested placement and will report to the Local Authority.

Fees are paid to the school proprietor (Bright Futures Autism Limited) by the Local Authority.  We are not able to consider private funding
