About Us

Clarendon is part of The Auriga Academy Trust with Capella House and Strathmore Schools, and the aim of the Trust is to extend local SEND provision.

Clarendon School is a vibrant and inclusive special academy for 160 pupils aged 4-16 with Moderate and Complex Learning Difficulties. Our unique and friendly school has three sites within the borough of Richmond upon Thames, all self-contained but co-located with inclusive minded mainstream schools. Our Primary and Secondary centres opened in new or newly refurbished buildings 7 years ago, giving us excellent purpose-built facilities, and a fourth site is planned to open in 2026 to ensure that we can meet the increasing need for specialist places locally. Clarendon School is a proud member of the Auriga Academy Trust, a unique partnership of special schools in West London, that is committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for young people with additional learning needs.
