The Island Project School

About the Company

The Island Project School was set up to provide a school for children and young people with autism.  It was founded by parents whose children had previously been taught at home using Applied Behaviour Analysis (“ABA”).

Without functional communication, adults with autism can be isolated from their family, community and even carers.  Without clear and early intervention, children and young people may grow into adults with no communication or independence skills meaning that they become the most dependent, and sadly most vulnerable group whilst needing the largest amount of support.  If, as a school, we can give young people a means of communication plus independence skills, we can give them a better quality of life, whilst reducing their long term dependence upon their community.

We will be moving site in September 2023 to Shirley, B90 4DX.
