Bladon House School is not just a school, it's a home. We give children and young people a loving and caring community where they are given the same opportunities as young people who don't have to face the challenges of learning disabilities. We strive for young people to be the best they can be and to follow their dreams. The six homes are based on the same site as the school and offer flexible residential placements from 38 weeks, up to 52 weeks for up to 39 young people. Each home has 6-8 bedrooms and are finished to a high standard. Each young person has their own personalised room, most with ensuite bathroom. Young people are encouraged and supported to follow their own hobbies and interests and have the opportunity to take part in activities with friends at school and out in the community, through local clubs. All young people have a say in activity plans and most get to try a range of new activities that then become longer term interests. Young peoples cultural linguistic and religious needs are supported and understood by staff to ensure they are receiving culturally sensitive and appropriate education and care. This is reflected in the recruitment of the young persons key worker, care planning, lesson planning, dietary requirements, personal hygiene items, social arrangement and opportunities for religious worship.
