On Track Education

On Track Education provides specialist education for young people with diverse and complex needs. Established in 2004 by a dedicated team of Special Educational Needs (SEN) teachers, we now operate nine independent schools across England. At the heart of our philosophy is a commitment to providing a nurturing, personalised, and needs-led educational experience, aiming to restore young people’s self-confidence and self-motivation through flexible programmes that combine academic, vocational, and outdoor learning opportunities.

On Track Swift House

Swift House is a specialist independent school for pupils with ASD, autistic pupils and those with related needs. It is set within a peaceful rural estate which provides an ideal backdrop for calm, focused learning. Since opening in September 2023, the school has built an inclusive and supportive environment with small class sizes and high staff-to-student ratios, ensuring every pupil receives tailored support. We offer a broad curriculum up to GCSE level, enabling pupils to develop confidence, achieve meaningful qualifications, and build the skills needed for a successful transition into further education, employment and adult life.

• Setting personalised learning targets that reflect prior attainment and recognise each pupil’s unique needs and potential
• Creating inclusive, accessible learning experiences that take full account of

pupils’ special educational needs

• Supporting young people to develop constructive strategies for managing behaviour, anger, and frustration, contributing to a calm and purposeful learning environment
