On behalf of our whole school family, I would like to welcome you to Crosshill School. We are a special school catering for 5-19 year olds, based in Blackburn and Darwen, and part of a wider family called Oak Learning Partnership. Our curriculum focuses on truly preparing our learners and their families for life and work beyond us. We understand that it 'takes a village to raise a child', to do this we take great pride in working collaboratively with our students, their families, our local community and other professionals to successfully achieve this and provide the greatest possible springboard into preparation for adulthood for our students.
Our school motto is to prepare our students so that they can flourish, we believe we do this by explicitly teaching our students to:
- Communicate with others
- Be independent
- Know themselves and the world around them
- Have respect for themselves and others
- Be kind to themselves and others
- Show resilience
- Be functional learners
The learners, families, staff and governors are extremely proud of our school. I hope that you find the information on our website useful, giving you an insight into the life and work of our school, and what ultimately makes us so special. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our school office.
Mrs Lidia Gardner
Headteacher
