Head’s Welcome

Brookfield School is proud to be a Lancashire County Council special school, dedicated to supporting pupils with an Education, Health & Care Plan for social, emotional, and mental health needs. We offer a broad, balanced, and highly personalised curriculum, complemented by strong support systems that enable pupils to enjoy school, make progress, and achieve positive, lasting outcomes.

At Brookfield, we do things differently. We innovate, we create, and we strive for excellence in every aspect of school life. Our culture is built on trust, belief, and continuous improvement, with attention to detail at the heart of everything we do. Our unique multi-site approach allows us to respond flexibly to changing needs and provide the very best for every pupil.

Our pupils are at the centre of everything we do. They arrive ready to engage, learn, and succeed—and when challenges arise, that’s when the most meaningful growth happens. For those who have previously struggled to engage or achieve, Brookfield offers a safe, supportive environment and a distinctive approach that helps them overcome barriers, build confidence, and unlock their potential.

I am extremely proud to work alongside our experienced and dedicated staff team, who work tirelessly to find creative and effective ways to support pupils and their families. Every pupil is treated as an individual, celebrated for their strengths, and encouraged to contribute to their class and the wider school community. We don’t chase quick wins; instead, we focus on building strong foundations—confidence, resilience, and engagement—that lead to lifelong success.

Beyond the classroom, we are committed to strong partnerships with families. From the first hello to the end of the school day and beyond, we work closely with parents and carers to ensure pupils remain safe, supported, and empowered to thrive both in school and at home.

While this website offers a glimpse into life at Brookfield, it cannot capture the warmth, energy, and sense of community that define our school. Please explore the site, follow us on social media, and get in touch if you’d like to know more. We would be delighted to welcome you for a visit and share what makes Brookfield so special.
