Chailey Heritage School is a Charity with a national reputation for excellence of which we are very proud. We work with children and young people with complex physical disabilities and health needs and we are unique in the way we integrate education with residential care and NHS therapy/health services. To enable this, we work in close partnership with Chailey Heritage Clinical Services, who share our site and are part of the Sussex Community NHS Trust, and with other agencies to ensure that the service we offer is tailored to meet the needs of our pupils/young people.
Communication and mobility are especially important and their prominence in the education and care of pupils is comprehensively supported by pioneering technology and highly skilled staff in all areas. Not only are staff committed to ensuring that children and young people reach their individual potential but we actively seek, and take account of, the views and involvement of parents and of the pupils/young people themselves.
We welcome visits to the school, particularly those by parents. Please do take some time to explore our website to discover for yourself what a very special place Chailey Heritage School is and, more importantly, what remarkable young people we care for.
Thank you.
