The residential provision at the School is divided into spacious and well decorated living areas. All of the bedrooms are divided into single room accommodation providing personal and independent provision to our learners. Each living area has its own lounge with a wide range of facilities including TV, video, computer, computer games, CD player, puzzles and books.

Each living area has a team of qualified staff who are trained to work with your child in a caring and responsible manner. The team itself is led by a Team Leader who is responsible for the running of that team. They are all supported by a competent senior team who run and manage the Department.

St. John’s is committed to providing your child with a professional staff team. All staff are required to undertake NVQ Level 3 Care and Education of Children and Young People within 3 months of commencing work at the school.

Our aim as a residential school is to provide our pupils with a diverse programme of challenging, integrating and stimulating options which will help them prepare for the future in their own individual manner. Each child at the school has their own particular needs and we work hard to ensure that they receive the independent support that they require. This is provided through an on-going 24 hour curriculum generated by a whole school approach.
