TMBSS is a Community School, maintained by Shropshire Council. 

The Service exists to meet the needs of students aged between 5 and 16 countywide, who require a short term intervention. The reasons include medical needs, permanent exclusions, moving into the county or those students directly commissioned by their mainstream school.

Our key purpose is to provide a high quality learning experience appropriate to the needs of the individual student. This will enable them to make good progress in their learning and personal development and restore self-confidence and enjoyment.
