Official opening! ⭐ Today we celebrated the start of Sutherland House School Braithwell's first full school term as a newly opened school.
Parents know that we opened our doors to students in February, when our staff were so busy trying to hit the ground running that we didn't get chance to mark this fantastic achievement.
With the Mayor of Doncaster Ros Jones and other valued guests present, including trustees, the parish council, parents and members of our own leadership team, we officially cut the ribbon and celebrated all that made it possible.
From all of us at Braithwell and the wider team at Autism East Midlands, thank you to everyone that attended and every person that has supported our journey so far. ✨

This will be based in Mansfield, and all children will have an autism diagnosis.
As this is a brand new service, we've got:
✅ Full-time roles
✅ Part-time roles
✅ Casual roles
Please get in touch if interested! ✨
