Part of the

Alternative Provisions

Where students can continue their education, develop essential skills, and prepare for future opportunities.

Nurturing and supportive environments where students develop essential skills in preparation for future opportunities; whether this is for students who are beginning their transition into further education or those who are preparing to exit education.

Our Alternative Provision is designed to support students who may face challenges that prevent them from accessing mainstream education effectively. These challenges can be varied and complex, including behavioural issues, mental health concerns, special educational needs, or social and emotional difficulties.

Our courses include practical skills or vocational training, preparing students for life beyond education. This focus on real-world applications helps students gain the skills and confidence needed for employment or further education.
