Since opening our first school in 2021 and expanding with a second in 2022, we have committed to providing an inclusive and supportive learning environment.

Our specialist day schools are designed to empower pupils, fostering resilience and integrity while building a strong self-belief.

Poplar House School is pleased to be working in partnership with Fylde Sports Centre for PE this term.

Physical education can support far more than fitness. It can help pupils develop:

✅ Confidence through participation
✅ Teamwork and communication
✅ Movement and coordination
✅ Positive routines around health and wellbeing

Working within a supported community setting also gives pupils the opportunity to practise skills beyond the classroom, while continuing to feel safe and supported.
We are excited to see pupils benefit from new opportunities to move, participate and enjoy physical activity in a meaningful way.

Since opening in September, it has been wonderful to see pupils settling into Lake House School and beginning to feel part of their new school community.

Lake House School has been carefully created as an independent therapeutic school. Every part of the provision has been designed to support pupils to feel safe, understood and ready to learn. 📚

From calm learning spaces and therapeutic support, to routines that help pupils build confidence and familiarity, the focus has always been on creating the right environment for each pupil to thrive.

As our first pupils continue to settle in, we are proud of the positive start they have made and look forward to seeing them continue to grow in confidence, independence and self-belief.

As Poplar House School prepares for the opening of its second site, we are excited about the development of our new outdoor space.

Outdoor environments can play an important role in supporting pupils with special educational needs. They provide opportunities for movement, regulation, communication and social development in a different setting.

Purposefully designed spaces help pupils access learning in different ways, supporting both personal development and educational progress.

We are looking forward to seeing pupils benefit from this new environment.
