Welcome from the Headteacher

It is wonderful to welcome you to Hopescourt School. As Headteacher, I am incredibly proud of the community we are creating here and of the team we have in place to support every child who joins us. Being the first specialist free school within the Trust is something we hold with great pride, and with it comes a real sense of purpose and dedication to getting things right for our learners and their families.

Here at Hopescourt School, we are committed to providing an education that is both ambitious and deeply personal. We believe that specialist support and high academic expectations are not mutually exclusive, and our aim is to offer the very best of both.

Our staff bring a wealth of experience across specialist and mainstream settings, and this breadth of knowledge shapes everything we do.

We are a school that is deeply committed to making sure every child is seen, valued and given the chance to flourish.

We are delighted to welcome you to Hopescourt School and very much look forward to getting to know you and your family.

Rochelle Richmond, Headteacher
