Bishopswood is a special school in South Oxfordshire (Berkshire border) that provides specialist education for children aged 2—16 years with severe (SLD) or profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) and complex needs, including those children with ASD.

This severely limits the students’ access to essential off-site activities and experiences, which are crucial to their educational and social development.

We've been getting by without a school minibus, relying on rentals when needed, but having our own would open up so many more opportunities for our pupils. With a dedicated minibus, we could expand the number of trips, visits, and enrichment activities available across both our primary and secondary sites, making the school day even more engaging and rewarding. Thanks to generous pledges, we've already raised £5,500 – but we need your support to reach our goal!
