Palmerston School

Palmerston provides high quality education for 150 pupils aged 11-19 who have severe or profound learning difficulties. We believe all our pupils can achieve, if they are provided with a learning environment that meets their needs.
We place great emphasis on developing independence and communication skills in all lessons and in Key Stages 4 and 5 the pupils are encouraged to develop skills for adult life including having the appropriate vocational experiences.
Pupil places are requested through the Liverpool SEN team but feel free to contact us for a tour of the school.
