The overall aim of our curriculum is to enable all our pupils to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens. It is delivered by qualified, skilled, empathetic and experienced staff within a warm, safe, nurturing and state-of-the art learning environment.
We offer a flexible, personalised, engaging skills-based curriculum, which provides both choice and challenge. It is focussed on developing core subject knowledge, emotional literacy, and offers a wide range of accredited outcomes.
There is a strong focus on the social and emotional aspects of learning and we focus on life skills throughout the curriculum where Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural development (SMSC) runs alongside everything that we do.
By building strong relationships and knowledge of our pupils, we are able to build pathways which ensure that each individual is able to pursue subjects they wish to study, talents are nurtured, opportunities are experienced and learning leads to positive outcomes.
