Cann Bridge School

Cann Bridge School is a registered Plymouth City Council Local Authority-maintained special school for children and young people aged 3 to 19 years. Located in Estover, Plymouth, learners travel from Plymouth, Devon, and Cornwall to learn, with a capacity of 108 learners. 

The school is designated as one for children and young people with complex needs, with their cognition and learning needs identifying a severe learning difficulty. Most learners have complex communication and interaction needs, including those identified as part of specific learning difficulties associated with Down syndrome, autism spectrum disorder, physical disabilities, or a complex medical condition. All learners have an education, health, and care plan.

The school was purposefully built and opened in September 2012 on the Tor Bridge Partnership site. The partnership consists of four individual schools, which are Tor Bridge High, Tor Bridge Primary, Plym Bridge Nursery School & Children's Centre, and Cann Bridge. 

Our mantra is 'We Can'! We have high aspirations for each and every one of our learners. Our dedicated and committed staff team focuses on what our learners can do, supporting the development of learner's communication and independence skills from the earliest years through our Pathways to Independence Curriculum. Our pedagogy aims to prepare learners for their best possible futures.
