The school follows the National Curriculum where it is deemed appropriate and personalises timetables for all pupils.

Pupils are supported in very small class sizes and the curriculum is tailored to meet their needs and abilities.  Their individual curriculum is designed to take each individual pupils own educational needs into account and maximise their opportunities for success.  Pupils can enjoy a wide range of learning opportunities with a range of qualifications including GCSE’s and BTEC.
