School

Welcome to Lyttelton House School

Set in the countryside just outside Andover, Lyttelton House School offers a calm, safe environment where children and young people can feel settled, understood, and ready to learn.

Our school is based in a carefully refurbished historic building, thoughtfully adapted to meet the needs of pupils with SEMH needs and neurodiverse profiles. Every space has been designed to support comfort, focus, and emotional regulation, helping pupils feel secure and able to engage in learning.

Classrooms are spacious and welcoming, creating a nurturing, homely atmosphere where relationships can develop and confidence can grow.

Alongside our indoor learning spaces, pupils benefit from a wide range of facilities, including a library, teaching kitchen, and flexible learning areas. Our outdoor environment is a key part of school life, with access to forest school provision, green spaces, and opportunities for hands-on, experiential learning.

Lyttelton House School is an independent specialist SEND school for up to 60 pupils aged 5 to 18. We are a mixed, non-denominational school, committed to creating an inclusive community where every child is supported to thrive.

Passionate about education

We are passionate about what we do and that’s providing a high-quality, aspirational education for children offering individual learning programmes. We take a holistic view of each of our children, offering individual care and a complete range of support that’s constantly evolving with their needs. Our school features:

  • Small, carefully matched classes of up to six pupils, each supported by a dedicated teacher and teaching assistant.
  • An intimate, nurturing environment with well-resourced classrooms, as well as multi-purpose and sensory spaces.
  • Highly trained staff skilled in trauma-informed practice, integrated communication, and relational approaches.
  • A broad and balanced curriculum that prioritises the development of reading, writing, numeracy, and communication skills, ensuring increased access to a rich and varied offer.
