Every long journey begins with a small step. It sounds easy, but some people need some extra help before they can stride out on their own.

At Acorn Education, we support children and young people to take those early steps. Through our schools, residential homes and other services, we tailor our care to each individual, empowering them, their families and communities to enjoy fulfilling, rewarding lives.
