SEND

Our SEND courses are specifically designed to support learners with mild to moderate learning difficulties.

With small class sizes, you will benefit from personalised attention and the support of specialised learning practitioners. We provide a structured and nurturing environment that promotes your personal growth, independence, and future employability.

Through a combination of practical activities, life skills development, and tailored learning, you will be empowered to build confidence, develop essential social skills, communication skills, and prepare for the world of work.

Our curriculum emphasises real-life applications, including:

  • Travel training
  • Budgeting
  • Teamwork
  • Problem-solving
  • Workplace readiness

By fostering independence, we aim to equip you with the tools to make informed choices about your future, whether that’s further education, employment, or independent living.

Is a SEND pathway for you? Here are some insights to help you decide.

SEN / SEND: Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.

You need specialised extra help. You may have a learning difficulty or disability and, as a result, you require extra help and support. 

You have an EHCP. You have more complex needs and therefore you have an EHC Plan from the local council. The plan details the extra health, education, and social care support you require.

You are 16-24 years and have an EHCP. In addition to our SEND courses, you can also apply for other 16-18 courses that we offer. However eligibility for each SEND student application is determined individually, this is so we can help you get on the best course and path for your aims.

You are willing to take on work opportunities to experience work life. You will have the opportunity to go on educational trips, attend talks, and visit employers with opportunities to learn about work life.

You want the best possible education journey. Your individual needs and goals are at the heart of our programme. We offer personalised support and clear progression pathways that recognise and celebrate you, for your unique strengths and aspirations.
