Weston Bay

Weston Bay is a residential training centre for students on the autism spectrum.

This pioneering development is the first of its kind in the UK and has already received plaudits from students, parents and the Government.

Weston Bay is recognised as a crucial facility by students, parents, professionals and agencies in North Somerset, and from across the South West. It is conveniently situated on Weston-super-Mare’s sea-front, between the College’s Knightstone and Loxton Campuses. 

It has eight bedrooms and three flats, allowing students to get used to living away from home by managing household tasks like cooking, washing, ironing and cleaning, in addition to developing their social skills.

The length of stay ranges from one night to three months, depending on individual requirements. Students may undertake several residential stays throughout their time at the College.
