Headteacher’s Welcome

Mayfield School is at the heart of the local community providing education, experiences and opportunities for children aged 2-19. Mayfield is a relatively small special school, with just 120 pupils, but we pride ourselves on making a big impact on the lives of our children and their families.

We believe the key to our success lies in the fantastic knowledge, passion and commitment of the experienced staff team. Nothing happens in isolation and everyone’s contribution is valued. Our knowledge of each pupil’s needs and focus on developing learning shines through all we do. 

To us, there is no such phrase as “I can’t” – we say, “you can’t yet, so let us find a way”.

We pride ourselves on nurturing our pupils and providing a one-size-fits-one approach to learning that enables our young people to reach their full potential. We provide a safe, happy and regulated learning community, where together we empower pupils to develop key skills for life.

I am privileged and proud to be the Headteacher of such a special school. To arrange a visit, please contact the school office. We would be delighted to welcome you and provide you with the true Mayfield experience.
