The original Edith Borthwick School was purpose built in Bocking in1976, and was designated a 'New Model Special School' by Essex Local Authority in 2006. In September 2015 we moved to our brand new, purpose built school in Braintree which offers superb facilities. We currently have a 240 pupil/student placement capacity.
A key feature of our school is the provision of a high quality education programme tailored specifically for individual needs. Meeting individual needs follows a route of Education Health Care Planning, with personalised plans engaging with a wide range of supporting agencies.
