Transforming Lives Together
At The Unicorn School, we transform the lives of children with learning differences and their families. Join us in our mission to expand and support even more children.
Why We Need to Grow
Every year, we receive over 350 enquiries for only 20 spaces. Our current site is at capacity. We have secured a second building directly opposite our current school to double our capacity and support an additional 120 children, including a new post-16 life-skills provision.
Our Expansion Plans
The new site, located at the former Premier Inn and Ock Mill on Marcham Road, Abingdon, will provide all the facilities and spaces necessary for our children to feel safe, supported, and thrive in their education. Key features include:
- Multiple therapy rooms
- One-to-one support rooms
- A comprehensive library
- Specially designed art and science rooms
- Integrated assistive technology
Students at both sites will benefit from these new facilities, ensuring they have access to the spaces and resources needed to meet their individual needs.
Project Plan
- Phase 1: Refurbishment of the Premier Inn Building will cost approximately £2.4 million, enabling us to welcome an additional 120 students by September 2025.
- Phase 2: Refurbishment of the Ock Mill Building will cost approximately £2 million, providing a post-16 vocational provision by 2026.
To refurbish the site and create the groundbreaking school our young people need and deserve, we need to raise £4.4 million.
