About Us

New Fosseway School, a unique special school in the heart of South Bristol.

We pride ourselves on our happy welcoming atmosphere that enables students to feel nurtured, valued and capable of achieving their very best.

Our friendly and highly skilled staff work in partnership with parents, carers and the local community and very much value the support and contribution they make to school life.

Our curriculum is stimulating and person-centred and helps our students to become as independent as they can possibly be. Students are encouraged to explore, discover and question through a range of exciting learning opportunities both inside and outside the classroom.
