Those Huge Small Victories

Our teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things. There’s lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these huge small victories and whilst they may seem small on the surface, they add up to make a big difference.

One of the best environments in SEND

Having joined Witherslack Group in 2022, Bramley Hill School is an independent specialist day school providing high-quality education. Based in Surrey and recently rated Good by Ofsted, the school meets the needs of pupils with a primary diagnosis of autism and additional needs such as PDA, ADHD, speech and language difficulties, sensory issues and associated behavioural difficulties.
