  • How will they benefit?

    Your child’s journey is unique, which is why we create a learning plan tailored just for them. By focusing on "total communication" (such as Makaton and symbols) and essential life skills, we help them grow in confidence and independence. With our specialist therapy team working alongside them, they’ll receive the expert, gentle care they need to thrive every single day.

  • How to apply / admission

    We know that choosing the right school is a big decision, and we are here to support you through it. Admissions are managed by the Dudley Local Authority SEN team for children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). If Pens Meadow is the right fit for your child, we will work closely with you to create a gentle, bespoke transition so they feel right at home from their very first day.

  • Pupil voice

    Every child has something to say, and we make sure they are heard loud and clear. Whether they use words, signs, or clever technology, we value every choice they make. Through their personal "All About Me" profiles and our friendly School Council, your child is empowered to share their feelings, make choices, and play an active part in their school life.
