Welcome to Fairley House

Fairley House is London’s leading day school for children with specific learning differences (SpLD). We are proud to have transformed the lives of hundreds of children, and their families, since we opened our doors over four decades ago.

We specialise in the education of children who have difficulty with reading (dyslexia), movement and coordination (dyspraxia), numbers (dyscalculia), and writing (dysgraphia). These learning differences often co-occur and can present in different ways and severity.

Our Fairley House magic formula for success, based on our deep knowledge and expertise, helps deliver transformative progress so all our students can truly realise their full potential.

Since our foundation as the first dyslexia school in the country in 1982, our provision has grown significantly to now offer a first-class education across Key Stages 1, 2, 3 and 4, including our tailored GCSE programme.

We created the first nationally recognised Teaching Diploma in SpLD in partnership with University College London and continue to train the next generation of teachers and therapists. Our in-house Assessment Centre offers a wide range of assessments to analyse and understand your child’s needs.

We have a significant research and outreach programme to spread knowledge and best practice amongst other schools and institutions about how to best support children with SpLD.

So, we invite you to find out more about the wonderful place that is Fairley House and how we could help your child on their path to fulfilling and successful learning.

Without a doubt, the best SEN school in the world. After moving from Australia to the other side of the world to put our children in this school, Fairley House has transformed my two daughters into the most, mature, grounded, confident and happy girls that have both attained exceptional GCSEs and A-level results. Thank you Fairley House School.
