About Us

The Royal Blind School has a long and distinguished history of meeting the needs of children and young people with visual impairment. Its grant-aided status underlines its continuing position as part of the core national fabric of education and care provision for pupils with visual impairments.

It is the belief of the school that all pupils have the right to achieve a range of learning outcomes including:

  • academic,
  • vocational,
  • social,
  • communication and
  • independent living skills.

The school provides high standards of education and care for pupils at all times, offering a range of opportunities and experiences that will enable our pupils to become:

  • successful learners,
  • responsible citizens,
  • confident individuals and
  • effective contributors to society.

Achieving this requires genuine academic opportunity and choice. Pupils’ programmes are fully individualised to deliver teaching and learning that is accessible, relevant and motivating in a safe, yet challenging, environment.
