Meldreth Manor School, 12 miles south of Cambridge, offers a broad and balanced education to pupils and students aged 9 – 19 with profound and multiple learning difficulties and additional sensory impairments.

Residential accommodation at Meldreth is available for up to 32 boarding students as either termly (seven nights a week) or weekly (four nights a week), placements, day placements are also available.

“This school has allowed our son and the whole family to thrive. Our son has a stimulating, varied and exciting life at the school where he has been able to make friendships with both staff and fellow students… We are continually supported by Meldreth in our efforts to give our son a good quality of life and are delighted with his progress.”

Residential accommodation is currently available for 38 weeks per year with an optional two-week summer respite scheme. From August 2008 we plan to open a 52 weeks a year registered children's home – to increase the flexibility of individual arrangements and to meet the needs of students and their families.

We are committed to teaching the National Curriculum through a unique integrated approach, which is followed throughout the day.

Since 1968, Meldreth Manor has been at the forefront of developing a wide range of educational experiences for children and adults with special needs, extended through our outreach service.

Extra-curricular activities include sports, clubs, discos and barbecues. The campus also has a hydrotherapy pool, multisensory studio with a range of equipment for developing sight and touch, and a unique outdoor adventure playground (Learning Curves).
