Alderwasley Hall School & Sixth Form

About Us

Alderwasley Hall School and Sixth Form provides exceptional education and care for day and residential students aged 5 to 20 years. We transform the lives of young people with High-Functioning ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), Asperger’s Syndrome, Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) and Developmental Language Disorder. We’re also highly experienced in meeting associated diagnoses and needs, such as Selective Mutism, anxieties and phobias.

Our Teachers, Therapists, Learning Support Workers and Residential Support Workers all work together to achieve our three core aims; to give students a sense of belonging, a sense of productivity and emotional and physical wellbeing.

We’re part of the SENAD Group who’s head office is based in Derby City Centre. In addition to Alderwasley Hall School and Sixth Form the SENAD Group operate five other special needs schools, adult care homes and community support services.
