Welcome to our Alternative Provision
We provide creative, personalised education for young people in KS3 and KS4 who need support beyond the mainstream classroom. With a strong focus on emotional wellbeing, self-expression, and confidence-building, our sessions combine academic learning with dance, drama, and practical skills in small group or 1:1 settings. Led by Joseph Hall, a mentor and educator with over 20 years’ experience in alternative education, we’re here to help bridge the gap between schools and pupils, guiding each learner towards renewed purpose, progress, and connection.
