The Jane Moore Trust
The Jane Moore Trust is a charitable organisation established in 1991 offering a range of responsive services that include education, employability, social enterprise, social housing, and access to psychological support for children and young people.
Education
At Moore House Group Dunkeld Campus we aim to provide sector-leading residential and education provision for neurodiverse children and young people aged 5 to 18, who require highly specialised teaching, bespoke pastoral care and a range of dedicated services, including Speech & Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Psychological Interventions.
Our children and young people may not have been able to sustain mainstream school placements, but our small class sizes, combined with individualised and bespoke curriculum pathways ensures that they maximise their potential and fulfil their aspirations at Moore House Group Dunkeld Campus.
Our campus is located in a calm, rural environment near Dunkeld, where we provide specialist:
- Day education
- Residential care and education
- Virtual learning through our Virtual Academy
- Outreach education
- Therapeutic support
We are delighted that our new Primary School is now open which allows us to admit pupils aged 5 to 18.
Therapeutic Services
Our Therapeutic Services support young adults who have previously attended Moore House Group education provisions, resided within one of their residential services or fostering families.
Our specialised team aims to provide the correct advice and support, at the right time, for any young adult who has moved on from Moore House Group.
During the transition into independent living, we will be there every step of the way. We believe that building trusting loving relationships constructs a platform to enable us to provide a tailored personalised service up to the age of 26.
We aim to develop our young people’s personal skills and resilience to make a positive, healthy and successful transition into adulthood.
Our team is based in West Lothian providing services across Scotland.
- Navigate through life transitions
- Promote sustainable Employment & Education outcomes
- Provide all aspects of housing support
- Advocate on behalf of service users
- Offer and provide practical, personal, emotional and social support
- Increase skills and abilities to encourage positive changes and choices

Volunteer
Volunteers serve as invaluable pillars of support, contributing to the holistic development and well-being of our children and young people. Their dedication and compassion create a nurturing environment where every child/young person feels valued and empowered to succeed. Through their efforts, volunteers offer individualised attention, tailored support, and mentorship, addressing the unique needs of our children & young people. In our schools, volunteers are not just helpers; they are champions of diversity, advocates for inclusion, and catalysts for positive change. If this is you, then look no further! The Moore House Group – Dunkeld Campus is thrilled to invite passionate individuals like you to join our vibrant team of volunteers.

An article published by The i paper has stated that the number of 'severely' absent autistic pupils has soared by 35% in a year, new figures reveal.
Recent findings highlight a severe crisis in special needs education. Amy Barnes’ story of her son Theo, an autistic student who... faced bullying and missed half a year of school due to lack of support, is a stark reminder of the systemic issues we face.
🔍 Key Statistics:
- Severe absenteeism among autistic students has soared by 35% in one year.
- Persistently absent autistic pupils have increased by 9%, with a quarter missing over 10% of the school year.
The Jane Moore Trust is committed to addressing these challenges. We believe in bespoke education tailored to each young person’s needs.
It’s time for better funding and resources, comprehensive autism training for all education staff and a coordinated approach to support our children effectively.
