Dunsley Hall
School

Located in Kinver, Dunsley Hall School is a beautiful Grade II listed building and provides a nurturing and engaging learning environment for up to 100 pupils aged 5–18. The school operates across two purpose-adapted buildings, allowing key stages to be separated and ensuring age-appropriate learning spaces. Classrooms are designed to balance smaller, focused teaching environments with larger, flexible spaces that support a range of learning needs, helping pupils thrive academically, socially and emotionally.

The school’s extensive grounds include forest school areas, a cottage garden for practical learning, and two educational ponds, offering valuable opportunities for outdoor and environmental education. A restaurant- style teaching kitchen supports cookery lessons and healthy eating programmes, while dedicated play equipment and open spaces encourage physical activity and social development. Inside, communal areas help build a strong sense of community, while a dual library provides age-appropriate resources for literacy and research. Breakout and sensory spaces also offer calm environments to support self-regulation and wellbeing.

Located just off the A449, near Stourbridge, the school offers convenient access from surrounding towns and nearby cities for both staff and pupils.
