Birch Wood College students attended their weekly work experience placement at Rutland Farm Park, a family-run 18-acre farm park located in the market town of Oakham.🚜

The animal care group were responsible for cleaning and feeding both the rabbits and guinea pigs. In addition to routine care, the guinea pigs received a full groom and appropriate handling before being returned to their clean enclosures.

Following the completion of their tasks, the students were able to enjoy a much needed and well deserved snack and drink in the warm café area.⭐ … See MoreSee Less

We’re really looking forward to welcoming Leicester Wheels back again as part of an exciting project taking place this calendar year, in partnership with Choose How You Move at Leicestershire & Melton County Council. … See MoreSee Less

“I am so happy with how my son has progressed in the school setting over a short period of time. A big ‘thank you’ for everyone’s help and especially for their exceptional support. I know that he will blossom throughout the school setting. Thanks again!”

“The primary school said under no circumstances could he go back after Christmas. Sending him to Birch Wood is the best thing I ever did, I couldn’t be more pleased. He is calmer, telling me about things he enjoys at school. Everybody has noticed such a big change in him, all of my family appreciate everything you are doing, it has changed our lives.”

“My son is really happy, he’s started playing again and back to the old child. Everything is really positive and he is much happier when he comes home. The unit has been really positive for him”

“I am happy with the new assessment and tracking system. My son seems very happy at school and appears to be making good progress. The teachers seemed very knowledgeable about my son’s abilities and when to push him. I would like to comment on his next IEP before it is finalised.”

“The provision has been outstanding in every way and the staff are brilliant with strategies to ensure progress is made in all areas of my son’s school life. We couldn’t ask for anything more!”

“I was very impressed with how positive ad enthusiastic all staff were tonight (as always). Especially impressed with all the efficient, colour coded information on my sons progress and it’s equivalent grade in GCSE.”
