Cambian Brook View School is an independent specialist day school with residential homes on site providing a high standard of education for students aged 8–18 years old with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder and other related areas of need.
We are dedicated to helping every child and young person achieve their personal best. Our aim is to make sure all pupils enjoy the same learning and social opportunities as their peers. We do this by offering high‑quality facilities and a creative, carefully tailored curriculum that supports each learner’s individual needs.
With a passionate staff team, a thoughtful approach, and purpose‑built spaces, we create a welcoming, safe and happy environment where every child can thrive and make progress, whatever their starting point.

Pupils’ specific special educational needs and/or disabilities are identified well by the school. Staff take time to assess how pupils learn best. They have a strong understanding of pupils’ needs, personalities, likes and dislikes.

This allows us to create a personalised programme of study and a bespoke package of care that truly reflects their individual needs. Through this support, students are given the confidence and guidance they need to develop, flourish and grow into capable, independent young people within their community.
