About High Park School

Welcome to High Park School, a proud member of Carlton Academy Trust and an Ofsted-rated Good specialist setting for children and young people aged 3–19 with complex communication, interaction, and learning needs. Here, inclusion, compassion, and personalised support are not just aspirations – they are the foundations of everything we do.

High Park is a nurturing and dynamic environment with a carefully crafted curriculum that is both meaningful and motivating, built to meet the unique needs of our learners. It provides the right balance of stability and challenge, underpinned by a strong focus on communication, emotional regulation, and physical wellbeing – giving our young people the best chance to thrive.

Our strength lies in our multi-professional approach. Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Aromatherapy, and our expert Positive Behaviour Team all work seamlessly with teaching staff to ensure an integrated, holistic approach to learning and development. Together, we help every pupil build the essential skills they need to live a fulfilling and independent life.

In 2024, High Park was proud to become the first special school in Bradford to be recognised as a Beacon School in mental health, receiving the Platinum Bradford Healthy Minds Chartermark Award. This prestigious recognition celebrates our deep commitment to both pupil and staff wellbeing, and our innovative, whole-school approach to mental health support.

As an Ofsted-rated Good school, we are proud of the quality of provision we offer – and always striving to go even further. Joining High Park means becoming part of a forward-thinking, supportive team that is passionate about making a real difference. Whether you’re a specialist teacher, a therapist, a support assistant or part of our wider school team, your contribution will be valued, your professional growth will be supported, and your work will have lasting impact.

At High Park School, we don’t just support progress – we transform lives. Come and be part of something remarkable.
