About High Close School

High Close is a non-maintained residential and day special school catering for children and young people between the ages of 7 and 18 years. It forms part of the educational provision offered by Barnardo's and our pupils come from a wide geographical area covering around 20 local authorities. The school has two SEN designations from the DfE, one for Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs and the other, Speech, Language and Communication Needs.

All our young people have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) for complex needs which may be to do with learning, behaviour, meeting demands or a range of other problems such as ADHD, Attachment, Autism, Specific Learning Difficulties, Mental Health difficulties, Sensory disorders, Speech and Language difficulties or a combination of some of these.

High Close is a tightly knit and positive community catering for up to 94 children and young people. We create a caring and supportive environment to bring out the best in every pupil and prepare them for a successful future.

High Close School is located in Wokingham, Berkshire, between Reading and Bracknell. Our school has excellent classroom and residential provision, with extensive, attractive grounds.

Commitment to safeguarding

Our safer recruitment processes mean that the safety and welfare of the child is paramount at every stage of the process and therefore we adopt rigorous scrutiny in our pre-employment checking. Applicants must be willing to undergo relevant pre-employment checks, including online checks, references being taken up prior to interview and for the successful candidate, an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, in line with the Keeping Children Safe in Education Statutory Guidance.
