From Joey, our Principal

Welcome to our very special school

After many years' experience as a Speech and Language Therapist, I opened our first language-centred nursery group in 1989. It was run on the philosophy that children need both ‘language to learn’ and ‘to learn language’ through exposure to a range of experiences that enables them to master other skills.

Since then, we have extended our provision to meet the needs of children who require an
integrated programme of learning throughout their school years, in a caring and highly
supportive environment. Self-esteem and confidence are crucial to success and many of our children arrive at Blossom House with a very poor self-image and little belief in any ability they do have. Taking a holistic approach, we celebrate children’s strengths, build on their successes and provide intensive, specialist help with the areas they’re struggling with.

Now offering full time education for children aged 3 – 19, Blossom House has flourished along with the many students and families we have supported.

Our school is a vibrant and truly positive place thanks to our totally dedicated, highly
competent and wonderfully caring staff. It’s a privilege to work with the children who come
here and to watch them blossom and grow.

Principal



“Each year that goes by continues to amaze, surprise, educate and delight both our children and parents. We indeed are very proud of our school and what you the teachers provide for our children. Amazing work, amazing staff! Thank you so so much!
We are loving what you do!”



‘‘You have done a remarkable thing for my child and for all the children at the school, as well as all of the families, even as far as the reach of the extended families and the community by creating the unique school and community that is Blossom House.”



“What an absolute godsend it was for us to find you. It was the turning point in his journey, and I wanted to let you know that you’ll always have our family’s thanks and appreciation.”



“Thank you very much for the meeting earlier and for all you do for our beautiful boy.
The way you all talked through everything he has achieved was wonderful… it hasn’t been an easy journey for us to start at anew school in a new country. It was a good decision and it is so good to see that he is starting to achieve his potential.”



“I would like to also thank you for the quality and professionalism with which you have handled my child’s assessment, I now better understand the provision and also my child’s needs.”



“I can tell that the detailed approach you take during the admissions process is testament of how much you want to understand each child in order to make sure you can meet each child’s needs at Blossom House.”




".......Blossom House is like stratospherically being launched into another universe and its wonderful.....” - (A pupil)
