Headteachers Welcome

On behalf of the children, staff and governors I would like to warmly welcome you to Applebee Wood Schools Website. 

I am very proud to be the Headteacher at Applebee Wood, where we work together to secure the most relevant education for all and always believe that anything is possible!

Here at Applebee Wood School our dedicated staff team are committed to providing outstanding opportunities for all our students to develop their skills and personalities to enable them to become the best they can be. We do this by providing excellent teaching, and support an inspiring and enriched curriculum within a safe, secure and positive environment. This enables our students to overcome a diverse array of learning difficulties, additional challenges and to grow in confidence.

To ensure the best outcomes for the children, we believe it's crucial to build partnerships between school, children and home. We value the contribution made by parents, carers and advocates towards their child's education.
