School Description

Pupils like coming to The Bridge. They feel safe and are happier than they have been for some time. The curriculum is adapted to help pupils to improve their mental health and well-being as well as catch-up with the learning that they might have missed. If pupils have fallen behind with reading and literacy, the school provides extra help so that they can access the rest of the curriculum. The school has established a strong and positive culture with high expectations for all pupils to do their best. Pupils treat each other with kindness and respect. Bullying is never tolerated. If there is ever any unkind behaviour, it is sorted out quickly. Pupils like their lessons and they work hard. Studies continue without interruptions because the school is a calm and orderly place to be. Sometimes, pupils need extra help to cope with their emotions. Staff spot these signs quickly and offer support in a considerate and respectful way. Teachers understand the needs of the pupils very well, and they adapt the curriculum for each pupil. Pupils learn about careers and the world of work and make plans for their future.
