Ochil Tower School

Ochil Tower School aspires to be a centre of excellence, providing person-led education and residential care for children and young people with complex additional support needs. The organisation's holistic approach ensures that every child and young person receives the best possible learning opportunities to suit their individual needs, based on a nurturing environment that helps them thrive socially and emotionally.

Its seven-acre campus in Auchterarder, Perthshire, is surrounded by woodlands, creating a safe, natural and nurturing environment for its pupils. Ochil Tower School's dedicated team members carry out a wide variety of roles but share a common goal: helping each pupil reach their full potential.

The organisation's classes form a significant part of the school’s 24-hour learning environment, with pupils participating in lessons aligned with the Curriculum for Excellence in a more formal setting. Ochil Tower School has designed its four classrooms to provide a nurturing, inclusive and engaging learning environment. With small class sizes, specialised resources and a specialist team that includes teachers, teaching assistants and volunteers, it tailors its approach to meet each pupil’s unique needs.

Ochil Tower School strives to provide a home-from-home for the children and young people who live and learn on its campus. By creating an inviting, nurturing environment, it can support children and young people develop their potential and support them as they learn and grow.
