Forest Edge School is an independent specialist provider of education on the Isle of Wight, for children aged from 11-14 who have a range of severe or complex needs arising from life trauma, Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC), attachment disorder or a phobia of education.

Our School
Small, nurturing setting designed for children who need a different approach to learning.
Our school is set in a commercial industrial building, which on the outside, definitely doesn’t look school-like. On the inside, it is welcoming and friendly, with a common open room area, and relaxed but well resourced classrooms that are set out in such a way as to inspire young people to want to come in and engage.
