Headteacher's Welcome

A very warm welcome to the website of Portal House – a very small and special school situated in the picturesque village of St Margaret’s at Cliffe, Dover, Kent.

We hope you will find the information you are looking for and get to know more about what we do here.

Portal House School is a small Special School for pupils who experience Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (SEBD). In September 2004, the School was redesignated as a day school offering a broad balanced education for 60 secondary aged pupils who experience the above needs.

All students are statemented and have an average to above average academic potential. Currently, we have 59 boys on the roll. The school is an East Kent resource funded by Kent County Council.

We have a ‘Good School’ with many outstanding features (Ofsted, December 2011)

Please do explore further and contact us for more information, or to arrange a visit, or suggest how we can improve this website.
