Wishmore Cross Academy, part of Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), is a special school in Chobham, Surrey, for boys aged 7 to 16 years who have social, emotional and mental health difficulties. We can admit up to 82 pupils which means that class sizes are small and we work very closely with our students to ensure they get the most out of each day with us. Set in beautiful grounds, we provide high quality CPD to all staff routed through the instructional excellence model.
We are part of a national and regional network of schools at AET, brought together by the belief that each and every pupil has an entitlement to an excellent education in every classroom, every day. An excellent education transforms lives and every pupil who attends one of our schools should be given the support, care and opportunity they need to flourish. We leverage our scale to support all our teachers, leaders and young people to be the best they can be.
Wishmore Cross Academy has extensive facilities:
These include the school field and orchard, which we have used for the 'Tree for Life' project. The school also has a therapy suite with input from a play therapist, speech and language therapist and occupational therapist. Students have access to a soft play area, climbing wall and sensory to support their regulation and support then to access learning. To view our brochure: Click here.
