School Description

Pupils are happy at the TLC (The Learning Centre) and find it a safe place to reconnect with learning. Many pupils have experienced a disrupted education at their previous settings. They develop the confidence and self-esteem they need to approach their next steps with success. Parents and carers speak highly of the positive difference that the school has made to their child’s well-being. Pupils appreciate how their individual needs are at the centre of the school’s decisions. The school has high expectations for pupils’ achievement. Pupils try hard to live up to these expectations. Pupils appreciate the time and support that staff take to recognise their achievements, both academically and in their personal development. This helps pupils achieve recognised academic qualifications and prepare them for futures outside of school. Pupils feel listened to and valued. Pupils’ attitudes and behaviour improve over time. Pupils build trusting relationships with staff. Pupils learn to recognise and manage their emotions. Staff swiftly intervene when pupils require additional support to resolve conflict. Pupils benefit from a broad range of experiences outside of the classroom, for example rock climbing and experiences of work. This helps pupils develop their talents and interests.
