Carlum House is a nurturing, inclusive learning community designed especially for neurodiverse children who thrive outside of mainstream education settings. As part of a network of independent, privately owned special needs schools, we share a common vision and educational approach rooted in respect, individuality, and care.
Each of our boutique campuses is thoughtfully designed to accommodate just 24–40 learners, creating a calm, spacious, and intimate environment where every child feels safe, supported, and empowered to grow.
​​
At Carlum House, we don’t just make space for difference — we design for it.
Here, every aspect of learning is built around the unique ways our children see and experience the world, allowing them not just to cope, but to truly reach higher.​
