What Moon Hall School Reigate does

Moon Hall School Reigate is a UK charitable trust (Moon Hall Schools Educational Trust, registered charity 803481, company limited by guarantee 2485159) operating a specialist mainstream school for dyslexic pupils aged 7 to 16 on a campus in Leigh, Reigate, Surrey. The trust was established in March 1990 and the school has been operating for over 30 years, positioning itself as a multi-award winning provider (ISA, NASEN, Good Schools Guide) with a 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio, teachers holding specialist dyslexia qualifications, and an in-house therapy team that includes Mental Health First Aiders and anti-bullying ambassadors. The curriculum follows national standards, includes dedicated Assistive Technology instruction, and is intended to deliver mainstream educational outcomes while removing stigma around dyslexia and supporting examination progression.

The trust's revenue model is fee-based, with parents paying day-school fees on an annual billing cycle and bursary support available on application; fee levels are not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the school's website, open days, and a dedicated admissions team led by an Admissions Registrar, supplemented by word-of-mouth referrals and an active social media presence. The service portfolio extends beyond tuition to a separate Moon Hall Assessment Centre providing dyslexia diagnostics and an annual Moon Hall Film Festival used for community engagement.

The most significant strategic action is the planned September 2026 launch of Moon Hall Copthorne, a satellite school on the 55-acre Copthorne Prep campus in West Sussex for children aged 7-11, delivered as an integrated partnership with Copthorne Prep. This is the trust's first multi-site move, intended to extend the specialist dyslexia offering to a new geography via an asset-light partnership model rather than owned real estate. There is no disclosed AI, software, or proprietary technology platform; the core offering is human-delivered specialist pedagogy plus assistive technology, which limits scalability but reinforces the specialist-teacher moat.
