St Clare's School

St Clare’s is an Ofsted outstanding 11-16 special academy for 159 children with learning difficulties and associated complex needs including autism, social emotional mental health concerns, sensory issues, anxiety and challenging behaviour. St Clare’s is part of the Esteem Multi Academy Trust which is a Trust of 14 schools from Derbyshire and Staffordshire. All students who attend St. Clare’s have an Education, Health and Care Plan.

St Clare’s success comes from our ethos that everyone needs to be nurtured and treated with care and respect in order to learn, build cultural capital, and develop independence ready for their next stage of life and learning. Visitors to the school often comment on the care and warmth shown by everyone in the school and we have recently been awarded the ‘Outstandingly Happy School’ status.
