Who can apply for care at Condover College?
They provide care for adults aged 18 and over with moderate to severe learning disabilities, profound and multiple learning difficulties, and additional complex needs.

Yes. They offer residential placements lasting either 38 or 52 weeks, with accommodation provided in their residential homes.
Does Condover College provide transport for day learners?
They provide transport for some day learners, subject to funding. Transport is therefore not available automatically to every day learner.
Can families visit Condover College before applying?
Yes. They hold regular open days and encourage prospective families to look around the college. If an open day is not suitable, they can arrange a personal visit instead.

How much does Weir Road cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Weir Road for its weekly fee. As a guide, Shropshire council paid on average £918 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
