A Welcome from the Headteacher

I am delighted to welcome you to The Marchant-Holliday School. Our vision is that all children can thrive in a caring, tolerant, understanding and supportive environment. We put our pupils at the heart of everything we do and we are constantly seeking to provide opportunities for education and care that help children to develop their full potential for social, emotional, intellectual and physical growth.

We also believe that every child has the right to feel safe in order to thrive and build their self-esteem whilst developing a lifelong love of learning. This is the essence of the Marchant-Holliday School in providing a nurturing environment for children who experience difficulties accessing mainstream education. In order to achieve these things we have fantastic staff and a wonderful site with amazing facilities. We have high expectations of all our pupils who we know are bright, engaging and interested in our world. As well as small class groups with lots of help and support from staff in supporting the National Curriculum, we include swimming, horse-riding, music appreciation, outdoor learning, gardening and many trips and visits as part of our school day and evenings.

Social times and activity clubs play a big part in the life of the school, giving the opportunity to develop existing talents, learn new skills and have fun. I hope you will enjoy browsing our website to find out more about what we do. If you would like to discuss anything further, please contact the school on 01963 33234.
