Richmond Hill school is a large thriving Primary Special School in Luton that supports children with SLD and complex needs. Richmond hill has grown every year and now has 280 children on roll, this is a testament to the high regard on which it is held by parents and the community alike.

As a large school to further support our vision for all, we moved in September 2021 to a small school model. We have two small schools, Richmond Hill East and Richmond Hill West.

At our school we strive to ensure that learning is purposeful for all and meets the following vision statement.

‘To grow independence, build communication and believe that we can achieve our goals in all that we do’

Each small school specialises in a particular developmental pathway and is tailored to provide the very best support, the most appropriate environment and provision.

We have three developmental pathways: Roots , Shoots and Leaves, more information about these developmental pathways can be found on our website.
