Newbury Manor School is an independent specialist school near Frome. We support young people aged 6-19 with a diagnosis of autism and associated SEN needs, learning difficulties and developmental delays.

We provide personalised education in a calm, nurturing environment helping each young person grow in confidence, rediscover their love of learning, and realise their full potential.

Many of our pupils have experienced disrupted education and we’re here to offer a fresh start with specialist teaching and therapeutic support that works the way students think and learn.

Our ethos 

To create a safe and secure environment for children with additional needs, empowering them to develop strategies and reach their full academic, social, and spiritual potential.

At Aspris, we know that when people are supported, they thrive — and when they thrive, they help others do the same. That’s what makes working here so rewarding.

We’re united by a shared purpose: to help young people reach their full potential, while growing and developing ourselves along the way. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to take the next step in your career, you’ll find the encouragement, opportunities, and sense of belonging to help you do your best work.

Here, your work matters. Your growth matters. And together, we make a real difference.

Our culture is shaped by three simple ideas.

• Unlocking potential for all
• Wellbeing and belonging
• The Aspris difference
