Visits to School

Prospective parents are welcomed, and encouraged, to visit school any time prior to their child starting school. Please note that an induction evening takes place prior to your child starting school, normally in early June. The meeting gives you the opportunity to have a greater insight into your child's learning at Springcroft, their daily routine, and a chance to ask any questions or share concerns that you may have.

Please contact our school office (01782 394793 or office@springcroft.staffs.sch.uk) to make an appointment to come and view our special school.
