The Holmewood School London, is a school for 7-19-year-olds with high-functioning autism, Asperger's Syndrome, and other language, communication and social difficulties.
Our philosophy is founded on a desire to make a difference and to challenge the way all members of our community think about autism. At The Holmewood School, we ensure our young people get every opportunity to achieve their full potential in life, irrespective of any difficulties. This commitment is an intrinsic part of our philosophy. It is at the heart of everything we work towards.
Our aim is to enable every young person to flourish by encouraging and building upon their unique strengths and interests. Students are supported to develop and deploy strategies that overcome and cope with their difficulties. We recognise that every student is different, and the individual hopes, dreams and ambitions of each young person are our starting point. In addition to academic achievement, the focus at The Holmewood School is on developing the social, emotional and personal skills of each student. This is supported by ensuring that we strengthen their independent living skills and teach them to advocate for themselves, which in turn lead to greater confidence and self-esteem.
