Equipping students with lifelong skills

Our aim is to support students to:

  • work with others

  • manage their own emotions

  • maintain their health and wellbeing

  • make their own choices and decisions.

Learning activities are personal to each student and may include:

Art
Ceramics
Cooking
Dance

How will learning be assessed?

Students typically work towards qualifications that align with their future goals. Evidence of learning is continuously gathered to support the achievement of individual learning and to track progress. Common qualifications include entry level accreditation in Personal Progress, Communication Skills or ICT skills.
