Welcome to
The Sheiling Ringwood


Set in a stunning, sustainable and eco-friendly 45-acre site close to the New Forest and Dorset coastline, the natural surroundings of our school and college provide a rich, enabling and therapeutic learning environment for students, aged 5-25, who have a special educational need.

We specialise in autism and communication difficulties, severe and complex learning disabilities and behaviours that challenge.

Our mission is to create an educational, therapeutic community and environment, which upholds each person's human integrity and spiritual wholeness and where every child and young person, both because of and despite their individual challenges, has something to give and something to learn through all of their relationships with others.

College students have been volunteering at The Dorset Children's Foundation as part of their Bronze and Silver The Duke of Edinburgh's Awards. They supported the charity by helping to sort stock for sale, raising vital funds for its work. The team worked hard and had a great time. @thedcf have been incredibly welcoming. This has proven to be a fantastic volunteering placement for Sheiling College students. #ThePowerofSpecialistFE #school #college #day #residential #healthandtherapies #dorset #hampshire
