Welcome to Hope School

Hope School and College is a large, popular and innovative provision catering for the individual needs of pupils’ and students from the ages of 2 -19 who present a diverse range of needs including severe learning difficulties and profound and complex physical/medical needs. 

The success of the school and college is purely derived from an enthusiastic, pro-active team of highly dedicated staff. Pupils are guided, supported and managed by an experienced highly focused multi-disciplinary team who all share the same aims in providing an  enriched, progressive and stimulating education and future for all. 

We have a strong, shared commitment to excellence, providing the highest quality of provision for all, and work together in a supportive, caring community atmosphere. A great emphasis is placed on addressing and challenging individual needs through a dynamic, exciting and challenging curriculum purposefully designed to enable everyone to develop and progress to their full potential within an excellently resourced and positive environment. 

On a personal note, I am enormously proud to be part of the continued development of such an outstanding school and college. It is both a privilege and a joy to work with all the pupils, parents, staff and governors; who are undoubtedly the driving force and the main reason that Hope School and College are held in such high esteem. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us on enquiries@admin.hope.wigan.sch.uk or call us on 01942 824 150 if you have any further questions or queries, we are here to help and support you all.
