On Friday we were pleased to welcome local MP, Chris Philp, to take a look around our newly opened site in Croydon and see our approach in action.

At Oak Bridge School, every detail - from diffused lighting and natural materials to our flexible base rooms - is designed to help young people feel valued and ready to explore their potential.

Yesterday at the Education Summit in London, our CEO Dan Alipaz took part in a crucial panel discussion on evolving SEND reforms and the role of the independent sector, alongside fellow panellists from Witherslack and Horizons Education and Care.

Reflecting on outcomes for children, Dan shared how Spaghetti Bridge’s Enterprise Learning demonstrates what is possible when we design education differently.

By building environments that prioritise relationships, connection, and belonging, we are not only helping students overcome barriers to learning - we are empowering them to reimagine their potential both within education and far beyond.

We’re proud to be part of these national conversations, sharing what we’re learning from our schools and working with others to help shape a positive future for SEND provision.

What if a school could help a child feel safe before they’d even spoken to anyone?

At Spaghetti Bridge, we don't believe design is just about how a space looks, the environment itself is part of the education.

For children who find school overwhelming, the small details matter most. That’s why we carefully design our spaces to help pupils settle in, feel safe, and know that they belong:

Bringing nature indoors: We use natural light, soft wood textures, and views of nature to create calm, welcoming rooms.

Ditching the bright lights: We replace harsh fluorescent strip lighting with soft, warm lampshades that don't hum, flicker, or strain young eyes.

Colour with a purpose: Gentle colours drawn from nature help pupils easily find their way around, taking away the anxiety of the unknown.

Room to move: Our classrooms are built around how children actually move and learn, offering flexible seating and comfortable spaces to help them self-regulate.

Where children learn is just as important as how they learn, and Beautiful Schools works together with our Relational Approach and Enterprise Learning to ensure our students have a better educational experience.

When we design a school, we aren't just putting up walls - we are creating a place where children feel safe enough to explore, learn and grow.

"I love how it makes me feel a lot safer than any of my other schools."

This is Angel, a student at Preston Bridge. On her first day she stood in one corner and watched everyone else.

In her full film she describes how our approach works without ever using our words for it. New students start slowly, getting to know the school and a few key adults before much is asked of them: "once I settled in, I already had new friends." Every student has adults who know them, and someone there for the harder days: "they listen when I need to talk to someone, and they especially help with any struggles I have personally."

The learning gets built around what each young person is actually interested in, that's what we mean by Enterprise Learning. As Angel puts it: "they'll make smaller or big activities around it.", then almost in passing: "My maths is getting better and so is my English."

Bridge to Your Future is back on Monday. Come for half an hour. See the building. Meet the staff. If your young person wants to look around too, they're welcome and if they'd rather not, that's fine as well.

📅 Monday 21st September
🕞 3.30pm – 5.30pm
📍 Harbourside Campus, Preston Bridge School

We’re delighted to share that Oak Bridge School is now DfE registered!

A huge milestone for us as we get ready to welcome our first young people next week.

So much work, thought and care goes into creating a new Spaghetti Bridge school, but it’s the arrival of our students that will truly bring it to life.

We can’t wait to see this space become theirs. A place where they can feel safe, know they belong, reconnect with learning and begin to discover what’s possible.

Oak Bridge - our London chapter begins.

Back to school is about more than walking through the gates.

A new academic year can bring lots of excitement, but for many of our students it can also bring anxiety, particularly when previous experiences of education have been difficult.

New staff, new peers, a different base room, changing friendships or new subjects can all make returning after the summer feel like a big transition.

That’s why our preparation starts before the previous year even ends, with introductions, visits and activities designed to build connection, confidence, safety and belonging.

When students return, we focus first on re-establishing relationships and gradually rebuilding routines, working with each young person to understand and overcome the barriers they may face.

Our Beautiful Schools, Relational Approach and Enterprise Learning all play a part in creating an environment where students feel they matter, belong and can reconnect with learning.

Because a successful transition isn’t simply about getting students back through the school gates.

It’s about creating the conditions that make them want to come back tomorrow. 💚
