Welcome to Palmerston School

Palmerston is an outstanding school that provides high quality education for pupils aged 11-19. We believe that all young people should experience a learning environment which nurtures, supports and challenges them to develop their independence skills, to be happy and confident. The positive relationships we have built between pupils, staff, governors, parents and our neighbouring community are highly valued and now we are fully established on our 2 sites we look forward to building on these. We place great emphasis on developing independence and communication skills and have the highest expectations of our pupils encouraging them to achieve their goals no matter how big or small.

We have recently opened a second site in Woolton for our more independent learners called 'Palmerston College' which is a really exciting addition to our ever expanding cohort. More information on this can be found in our 'News' section of the website.

Please enjoy exploring our website and feel free to contact our school if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Alison Buckley | Head Teacher
