Newbury Manor School is a specialist school for young people aged 7 to 19 who have autistic spectrum disorders (ASD). Our tailored approach means we are able to support young people with a wide range of needs, from those who are broadly average in their ability to others who have more severe learning difficulties.
We provide a total environment where young people are offered safe, secure, and predictable surroundings in which they can come to understand their own areas of difficulties and learn skills and techniques to overcome them. This ensures that they are able to fulfil their potential socially, academically, physically, and spiritually, enabling them to rebuild their low self-esteem and self-belief.
We take pride in the environment we offer. The school is located in a beautiful, quiet, rural location in Somerset in a Georgian manor house, which has a range of outbuildings and extensive grounds. Our ethos was created in the belief that a positive, supportive, achieving culture is essential for good pupil progress. We seek to maximise independence and individual potential so pupils gain the skills to live happy, meaningful, and fulfilling lives.
As part of Aspris Children’s Services, we are immensely proud of the career pathway and training we can offer you. We ask that you can demonstrate the values needed for a role, transferable skills, and life experience, and in return, we will give you all the training and support you need to progress.
Ideally, you will have experience in some of the following areas: plumbing, electrical, carpentry, plastering (qualifications are not essential).
If you want to progress your career, Aspris Children’s Services will help you get there.
