Moon Hall Goes Global with Cairo Launch and UK Assessment Centre Rebrand
Moon Hall is proud to unveil two transformative developments that mark a bold new chapter in our commitment to Special Educational Needs (SEN) provision and the broader neurodiverse community.
In an extraordinary international collaboration with New Era Education, Moon Hall has successfully transformed a visionary concept into reality with the opening of Moon Hall Cairo (moonhallcairo.com). This state-of-the-art learning centre, now fully operational, was brought to life from its initial concept in just 14 months; a remarkable feat compared to the typical 3–4-year timeline for a project of this scale. The launch brings Moon Hall’s renowned dyslexia-specialist ethos to Egypt, offering tailored education and assessments to meet the growing needs of children and families across the region. “It is a tremendous honour to bring the Moon Hall vision to life in Egypt through the launch of Moon Hall Cairo,” said Lucy Pelling, Head of Assessment Centre (UK) and Founding Head of Centre (Cairo). “This project represents an ambitious step forward - not only in scale, but in impact. To have taken it from concept to completion in just 14 months is a remarkable achievement, and I’m thrilled to see the Moon Hall ethos now making a difference internationally. We are proud to extend the excellence and integrity of our work to families in Egypt, and to offer the same specialist care and insight that has transformed lives in the UK.”
In tandem, we are thrilled to introduce the rebrand and official launch of the Moon Hall Assessment Centre UK (mhacuk.com) website - operating as a standalone, enhanced provision, from the Moon Hall School Reigate site. With a refreshed identity, Moon Hall Assessment Centre provides means-tested, in-depth assessments for both children and adults. As demand for diagnostic services continues to rise, the assessment centre plays a critical role in closing the gap between need and access, ensuring individuals receive the timely support they deserve. Moon Hall Assessment Centre has transformed access to specialist assessments for children with specific learning difficulties, removing long-standing barriers that have hindered timely support. By working closely with parents, local schools, and professionals, we’ve developed a vital service that ensures no child is left waiting unnecessarily for the help they need. Across the UK, families often face assessment wait times of 18 months or more through Local Education Authorities (LEAs). Moon Hall Assessment Centre has reduced that wait to an average of just 8 weeks, enabling early diagnosis and early intervention - both critical in shaping a child’s long-term educational success. Our means-tested model is central to our mission: it ensures that assessments are accessible regardless of a family’s financial circumstances, so that cost is never a barrier to crucial support. Early identification unlocks the pathway to tailored support plans, appropriate access arrangements, and specialist teaching strategies. This not only improves academic progress but also builds confidence, resilience, and self-belief in children who often feel left behind in educational settings.
These dual developments underscore Moon Hall’s unwavering commitment to the future of specialist education and to addressing the urgent, high-volume demand for accessible, high-quality assessments both nationally and internationally. “This is so much more than an expansion - it’s a statement of purpose,” said Mrs Michelle Catterson, Executive Headteacher at Moon Hall. “The opening of Moon Hall Cairo and the launch of mhacuk.com represent our long-term vision to elevate and provide easy access to assessment, understanding, and support. These are steps we take seriously, with integrity and dedication to meaningful societal contribution.” In line with our maintained vision of equity, the Assessment Centre welcomes enquiries from anyone - you do not need to be connected to Moon Hall School to access its services. About Sponsorship Packages (Moon Hall Assessment Centre) By becoming a sponsor, businesses will play a direct role in transforming the lives of children and families who urgently need access to assessments but face financial or systemic barriers. Sponsorship will help fund essential diagnostic assessments for families who would otherwise be unable to afford them. These assessments enable early intervention, which is proven to significantly improve educational outcomes by ensuring children receive the right support, at the right time. In addition, any contributions will help reduce the lengthy waiting times many families face, often over 18 months, by allowing us to expand our capacity and respond to need more rapidly.

There will be flexible sponsorship packages to suit a variety of corporate social responsibility goals and budgets. As a Gold Sponsor, there will be a commitment to funding ten or more assessments each year. Silver Sponsors pledge support for five to nine assessments annually, while Bronze Sponsors contribute to between one and four assessments. We also welcome bespoke sponsorship arrangements beyond these tiers - any support, regardless of scale, can be life-changing for the individuals it reaches. In return, companies and/or individuals will benefit from enhanced visibility, with opportunities to demonstrate commitment to inclusive education and community support. There will be opportunities to connect with other socially responsible organisations at our sponsorship networking events, joining a growing community of partners committed to real and lasting impact.
