Hera House

Warm Welcome

Welcome to Hera House. We are very proud of our students and our school community, where all voices are valued and we work towards improving everyone’s quality of life. Our dedicated staff team works hard to make sure that every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential, through a wide range of curriculum and enrichment activities, and we offer a positive, caring environment where our young people can thrive. 

Our values are Honesty, Empathy, Respect and Acceptance and we promote these through our relationships between staff, students, families and other partners. We believe in the importance of good relationships between home and school and we offer a wide range of support for families as well as our students. We know that working together to support the student is the best way to improve their outcomes. 

At Hera House, we value people’s individuality, set high expectations for their behaviour and achievements, and promote a sense of community and belonging. We care about our young people, we welcome our visitors and we value positive relationships. 

We look forward to meeting you soon!

Working with Students

Every student at Hera House is allocated a Key Worker, who is their main point of contact and advocate in the school. Key working is very much at the heart of the QoL approach and key workers should get to know their students and families through regular contact and supportive conversations.

Working with Families

We try to maintain weekly contact with all our families via your child’s key worker. We also send out regular Family Surveys to help us to understand what additional support we can offer. Since we started the surveys, we have been able to access additional funding for families, run training or information courses for groups of parents/carers and helped people to find mental health support. The Family Surveys have also helped to shape how we train our staff and how we connect with others.
