At our Bennerley Site, we support students in Primary through to Key Stage 3 who have either been permanently excluded or are at risk of permanent exclusion from mainstream education. Our focus is to positively re-engage pupils in preparation for the next stage of their educational journey, whether that be reintegration to mainstream education or where appropriate transition between our own sites and key stages.  

 

At Key Stage 3 our students have access to a broad and balanced curriculum comprising of: English, Maths, Science, Art, Topic, PSHRE, RE & PE. Students also access vocational learning via our eVolve curriculum where they can experience E Sports, DJing, Hair & Beauty and a range of other vocational opportunities. Students are taught using the national curriculum framework, with an understanding of skills and topics at the next stage of learning whether at GCSE or Functional Skill level. This allows us to thread knowledge and skills through our topic areas to enable students to develop academically.
