visiting arise education
At this time, all of our places are full and we are not able to offer immediate admissions. Due to the high volume of consultations we receive for a small number of places, our next planned availability is from September 2026.
We know how important it is to find the right provision for your child, and we consider every enquiry we receive carefully. Although places are currently limited, we are always happy to arrange a visit and show families around so you can get a sense of our approach, environment and ethos. That said, placement availability can change during the year and we are always happy to discuss your child’s needs and explore whether Arise may be the right fit in the future.
If you would like to speak with us or request further information, please get in touch.
We'd love to meet you!
If you're looking for an on-roll school place, choosing the right learning environment is a big decision. Visiting Arise Education is the best way to experience who we are, how we work, and what makes our approach unique. During your visit, you’ll have the chance to explore our spaces, meet students and members of our team, and ask any questions about how we support young people through personalised, trauma-informed education.
We welcome families, professionals and local partners to book a tour using the options below. Each visit offers a calm and friendly
introduction to life at Arise, giving you a real sense of whether we may be the right setting for your child or young person.
Whilst we are unable to offer private tours at the moment, if you are a professional, parent/carer, commissioner, or other representative, with a general enquiry, please get in touch using our contact page.
What to Expect on a Visit
Our tours take place at Little Pinum, which is the main base for the majority of our on-roll students. Arise Education operates across multiple sites in Warwickshire, and there are several pathways for accessing our provision depending on individual needs. While not every student is based full-time at Little Pinum, all students access this site at some stage of their learning journey. For this reason, we use Little Pinum as the starting point for visits so families can gain an authentic understanding of our core environment, ethos and approach.
Tours of our Little Pinum site last approximately one hour and usually include a small group of families visiting together. This allows us to meet the high level of interest in Arise while still offering a meaningful and personal experience.
Due to high demand and limited space on each tour, we kindly ask that you only book for essential members of your party—typically the young person who may attend and their parent/carer. This helps ensure that as many families as possible have the opportunity to visit. At this time we are not able to offer private tours.
Arise is a working education site with staff, students and some (friendly) free-roaming animals around the grounds. We believe it’s important for visitors to experience our environment as it truly is!
Accessibility and Support
We will always do everything we can to ensure every visitor feels comfortable and supported. If you or your child require any adjustments—such as sensory considerations, support on arrival, or space to pause during the tour—just let us know when booking. We want your visit to feel safe, manageable and positive!
A Note About Admissions
While visiting us is a helpful first step, admissions to Arise Education are managed through local authorities and follow statutory processes. Booking a visit does not guarantee a school place, but it can help you understand whether you would like to explore a referral. You can find more information about the admission and referrals process here.
