Leigh Academy Snowfields is an Outstanding specialist school for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), offering a warm, inclusive, and aspirational environment across our Bearsted and Cranbrook campuses - with a brand new, purpose-built site opening in Minster, September 2025. Across all sites, our dedicated team empowers every student to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
Our approach blends care with ambition - “Where Nurture Meets Aspiration” - and is underpinned by our core values: Be Kind, Work Hard, Communicate, Stay Safe, and Be Happy. We offer small class sizes, highly personalised support, and a broad, balanced curriculum that includes GCSEs and vocational pathways. Our specialist facilities in catering, horticulture, and land-based studies prepare students for meaningful, independent futures.
Awarded Ofsted Outstanding, Snowfields is more than a school - it’s a collaborative and inspiring community where staff are valued, supported, and developed. Whether you're new to special education or an experienced practitioner, you’ll be part of a forward-thinking team making a real difference.
