The objective of the programme is to equip students with the skills and strategies to step into a larger environment, such as college or the workplace in the future.
All our students have EHCPs, and our specialist staff work with the students to help them develop resilience and good mental health and aspiration for the future.
The curriculum and timetables offer a range of subjects and skills designed to develop confidence, identify interests, skills and personal qualities – supporting them to find their own pathway.
Depending on the individual student’s need, the package can include social skills and communication, Employability & Work Skills, Functional Skills Maths and English, Life skills & Wellbeing, Art, Music, practical activities, vocational course, work experience, volunteering and community projects, counselling, enrichment activities, and a range of ongoing support.
As a college community, kindness, inclusivity and respect for each other is paramount and we work with students to develop their social and emotional skills.
We provide careers advice and vocational options for students to start the process of moving towards employment and arrange work experience opportunities in line with their interests.
Our sense of community extends to beyond our students as we know that working collaboratively with families, other agencies and support services is key to the success of students at the college, with staff in frequent contact with parents/ carers so we are all informed and working together.
Please do get in touch if you would like to learn more – although be aware that all placements need agreement from SEN.
