Welcome to
The Sheiling Ringwood


Set in a stunning, sustainable and eco-friendly 45-acre site close to the New Forest and Dorset coastline, the natural surroundings of our school and college provide a rich, enabling and therapeutic learning environment for students, aged 5-25, who have a special educational need.

We specialise in autism and communication difficulties, severe and complex learning disabilities and behaviours that challenge.

Our mission is to create an educational, therapeutic community and environment, which upholds each person's human integrity and spiritual wholeness and where every child and young person, both because of and despite their individual challenges, has something to give and something to learn through all of their relationships with others.

Our school students have been learning all about life cycles by hatching and caring for chicks. They explored what the chicks need to thrive at every stage, and enjoy handson care as the chicks grow. Students and staff alike have loved this experience creating memorable moments. #school #college #residential #day #healthandtherapies #SEND #dorset #hampshire
