West Lea School

We believe in a world where everyone can flourish

Welcome to West Lea

Where we're breaking down barriers for children and young adults in Enfield with special educational needs

Catering for students aged 4 to 25 with special educational needs and disabilities, our four campuses – Meridian, Haselbury, Learning for Life and Horizon – equip children with a ‘suitcase’ of skills to help them flourish.

Throughout their journey, learners achieve academically and develop independence, life and work skills that will help to prepare them for further education and employment. 
 
We pride ourselves on creating an inclusive environment where everyone is welcome and where learners can overcome challenges to play active roles at home, at school and in the local community. 
 

Our learners face many obstacles, but we ensure they succeed in the classroom and in life.
