Develop, Create, Engage
It is my pleasure to welcome you to Riverwalk School, a vibrant special school in Bury St Edmunds.
At Riverwalk, we place our pupils at the heart of everything we do, recognising and celebrating each individual’s strengths, interests, and achievements.
Our school provides high-quality education and care for children and young people aged 4–19 with Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD) and Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD). We are committed to creating an environment where every learner feels safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.
Working closely with families, carers, and a range of professionals, our dedicated staff team ensures that every pupil’s learning journey is meaningful, personalised, and fulfilling. Through a rich and engaging curriculum, we encourage communication, independence, confidence, and a love of learning that extends beyond the classroom. Riverwalk is a community built on kindness, respect, and aspiration.
I invite you to explore our website to learn more about our school, and I warmly welcome you to visit us to experience our caring and inspiring environment firsthand.
Kind Regards,

What an incredible experience at Circus Starr - The Circus with a Purpose! Last week, some of our students had the amazing opportunity to visit Circus Starr, a family-friendly and fully inclusive circus that tours across Great Britain. One of our parents shared: "My daughter had such a great night – it felt like it was just for her! We took lots of pictures and even a video of the song at the end of the show!" A huge thank you to Circus Starr for bringing so much joy and creating such a magical, inclusive experience for our families.
