Our School
Adaptable learning environments
Moorcroft students attend school at one of two specialist locations. Our main school site in Hillingdon and the Eden Pinkwell Satellite based at Pinkwell School in Hayes.
We adapt our learning environments on both sites using state-of-the-art resources so that students can follow a programme specially designed to meet their educational, sensory and social needs.
"At Moorcroft we will meet the needs of every young person who comes through our door."
Andrew Sanders, Regional Director
Accessible spaces to learn
Specialist teaching areas
The buildings are light and spacious, with large well-equipped classrooms and a number of specialist teaching areas, all located at ground level.
At the main school site doors are wide enough for wheelchairs to pass through and there are overhead hoists throughout the building so all students are able to fully engage in learning.
Both sites are safe and secure. There is an entrance system to ensure students are safe, and outdoor fences are high. there are large outdoor playgrounds, and several, fully-secured garden areas
Hydrotherapy pool
We also have our own hydrotherapy pool with overhead hoists from the changing area to the pool, enabling students with physical disabilities to access the pool with dignity.
Life skills area
There is a large hall which is used for PE, assemblies and for lunches for Lower School students. In the Sixth Form, there is a large life skills area to enable students to develop independence skills. This includes a kitchen and café, as well as a separate garden just for sixth form students.
Sensory gym
We have a large and well-equipped sensory gym.
Darkroom and quiet areas
Our dedicated department for students with multi-sensory impairments includes a darkroom for students with visual impairments. The classrooms, in this department, have curtained and quiet areas, to enable students to participate in multi-sensory activities.
Quiet rooms
Classrooms also have shared quiet rooms for individual work.
