Dove House Academy

Dove House Academy is a special school based in Basingstoke that provides education for approximately 230 pupils aged 11 to 19 across two sites. The academy delivers an engaging and highly specialist curriculum tailored for young people with moderate and severe learning difficulties, including autism and specific learning difficulties. Its provision focuses on an aspirational, personalised curriculum that supports academic development alongside life skills to prepare learners for the wider world. Dove House Academy is part of Solent Academies Trust, a group of special schools that offer creative, relevant, motivating and personalised curricula to meet a wide range of needs. The school emphasises a safe, supportive and nurturing environment, with a stated commitment to achieving the very best outcomes for every pupil, member of staff and family. While the website highlights curriculum areas, careers education, key stage 4 courses and post‑16 aims and outcomes, it does not describe employer-facing apprenticeships or workforce training programmes for external organisations. All publicly available information on the site relates to school-age and post‑16 special education rather than apprenticeship delivery.
