About us:

Mill School Bury is part of the Kedleston Group and opened in 2020.

Mill School Bury is an independent autism specialist school which supports children and young people aged from 7 - 16. The school has been designed to best support children’s mental health and well-being and to provide a state-of-the-art learning environment.

The school is set in its own extensive grounds including areas for Bush Craft and a MUGA. Inside, a combination of rebound, multi-sensory and immersive reality therapy spaces ensure the holistic approach continues.

The focus at Mill School Bury is on maximising every individuals’ potential to develop into a confident, resilient, critical thinker and skilled child who will make a positive contribution to society and live as independent a life as possible. The aim is to help the children develop a tool kit of coping strategies to leave school with.

The school enables children to reach their full potential and achieve their own personal success, and to have the knowledge, accreditations and confidence to do that.

The school is ambitious for its young people and is creative in developing curriculums for them, and alongside them, which help them achieve their goals and has invested in the resources and the facilities to allow them to do so.

We are committed to safeguarding and protecting children and we expect all colleagues to share this commitment. We will do everything possible to ensure that only those who are suitable to work with children are recruited to work for us. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975, 2013 and 2020 and is subject to a range of vetting checks including a criminal records disclosure.
