Welcome to Redbridge High School.
The Arete Foundation Raised over £32,000 Towards our new School Bus !
The Arete Foundation first heard about our need through the Variety Club, after we applied for a minibus. They came to visit us at Redbridge, and from the moment they stepped into our school, they just “got it.” They saw our need and committed to raising the funds for our minibus. They organised a Lake District Triple Challenge—a hike, bike, and kayak event—and thanks to the efforts of 20 incredible people who took on this challenge, they raised over £32,000.
Variety club including some funding also and the new bus was presented to us on the 15th July. Classes are making good use of it for trips into the community to support the curriculum learning objectives.

At Redbridge High School our aim is to provide outstanding educational provision that will also encompass the holistic needs of pupils, aged 11 – 19 with SLD, PMLD and any additional needs particularly ASD. We will deliver this through a flexible skilled workforce in an inclusive caring environment that has pupils at its centre.
"Pupils’ best interests are at the heart of everything that you do. You and your staff care deeply about the pupils you work with. Staff have a detailed understanding of each pupil’s needs. They work closely with parents and carers, going the extra mile to support pupils. The warm relationships between pupils and staff reflect this caring ethos. High-quality teaching enables pupils to make excellent progress. Clear communication ensures that pupils understand what they need to do. Well-established routines allow lessons to flow smoothly. Skilful use of resources gives all pupils the opportunity to take part in lessons. Support staff are very effectively deployed. This ensures that every pupil receives the help they need to develop their skills."
