The 250th young person to be supported by Prior’s Court’s School and Young Adult Provision has started their journey with us this week.

The 250th new starter began their time at Prior’s Court on Monday – just 11 days before the 25th anniversary of the day we opened our doors to the very first young people we supported.

Sue Piper, Director of Learning who has been at Prior’s Court since 2001, said: “250 young people being supported at Prior’s Court is just the tip of the iceberg. This 250 young people leads to thousands, or even tens of thousands, of connected people being touched by Prior’s Court.

“Whether that be young people’s families or our staff and other autism professionals who have received training which has then influenced their work elsewhere with other autistic people, or donors who have contributed to our projects through seeing first-hand how young people have been supported..”

Prior’s Court opened on September 13th, 1999 with two students and 28 staff. This has now grown to 80 young people and around 500 staff members.
