The Aurora Group | Special Needs & Disability (SEND) Schools

Our children’s services include specialist day schools and children’s homes. Our adult services include specialist post 16 colleges and residential care homes.

Each of our schools, colleges and residential homes retains its own unique identity while embracing and embodying The Aurora Group’s core values:

We are caring - We understand that your experience in mainstream care and education may have been a difficult one. We take seriously our responsibility for the children and young people in our care, and are committed to making your time with us as positive and fulfilling as possible.

We are ambitious - We have high expectations of all our children and young people, regardless of what barriers they may have faced in the past. We encourage them to expect more for themselves, while challenging employers and communities to understand and value their diverse needs and attributes.

We are collaborative - Everything we do, we do in partnership with you. We actively seek and listen to feedback from students, parents and staff, to find out what’s working well, what we can do better, and how we can further develop all our services to benefit the people we work with.

We are trusted - Our business is funded by ethical investors. They understand that sustainable growth is possible only when we hold ourselves to the highest standards, by delivering consistently top-quality services to every single person we work with.

We are innovative - We begin planning for each young person’s future the minute they walk through our doors. We tailor our approach to their unique needs, and are constantly looking for new opportunities to help them explore, enhance and employ their own skills, talents and abilities
