The Rise School

The Rise School opened in September 2014 under the Government’s Free School programme. It is the first school to be opened by the Autism School’s Trust, a Multi Academy Trust. The school is registered for pupils aged 4 – 18 years who have autism. At full capacity, the school will have 96 pre-16 pupils on role plus up to 16 pupils in the sixth form. 

The Rise curriculum has been thoughtfully designed to ensure that when pupils leave us they are equipped with both the qualification and key skills needed in order to independently take their next steps, whether that is further education or meaningful employment.
