Since opening in September 2024, Hopescourt has grown into a school where learners exceed expectations. Our growth continues as we recently moved into our new purpose-built school on Waterside Drive, Walton-on-Thames - a learning environment designed specifically to meet the needs of our children. The new building features flexible classrooms, therapy spaces and communal areas supporting independence, collaboration and wellbeing. Here, pupils will access specialist support alongside high-quality subject teaching, combining the best of mainstream and specialist education to ensure they can make excellent academic progress while developing socially and personally. At Hopescourt, we believe no child should ever have a glass ceiling placed on them. Every learner deserves the opportunity to succeed, and our mission is to break down barriers and prepare them for life beyond school.
