About our school
Hilltop is a designated 2-19 special day school for pupils with severe and profound and/or multiple learning difficulties.
We are situated across two sites in Rotherham: Hilltop site in Maltby and Hilltop Forest View site in Rawmarsh. Each site is designated to meet pupils' needs via its curriculum offer. Pupils generally attend the Maltby site for key stages 1 and 2 of their education. For key stage 3 to 5 pupils, EHCP plans are reviewed, and the school considers which site is best suited to meet their educational needs.
You can help create a forward thinking, innovative culture where pupils and staff can truly flourish. Our ambition and yours will be that Hilltop is a centre of excellence for both the specialist provision and for promoting the latest inclusive practices across education.
Our children and young people at Hilltop deserve an education that will change their lives and give them the opportunity to fulfil their potential. Staff employed in our Academy Trust enjoy a fulfilling career and we focus on releasing your potential and maximising your impact.

We are committed and invested in “Learning together, to be the best we can be” and it is as relatable to every employee and partner of our Trust as it is to our children, young adults and their families.
