We aren't a traditional school. We are a student-led, inclusive community owned and led by our Head and Deputy. We believe that behaviour is communication, and our "whole school approach" ensures that empathy and positive relationships are at the heart of everything we do.

What We Offer

• A Diverse Curriculum: From KS2 through to KS5, we offer fully accredited programmes balanced with social, emotional, and therapeutic aspects to learning.
• A Supportive Environment: You will work alongside a team with a wealth of expertise and a shared belief in the strengths of every individual.
• A Mission with Meaning: Our goal is to maximise our students' chances of independence, helping them become positive contributors to society and live fulfilling lives.

About You

You are someone who refuses to give up on a young person. You have experience in SEMH or ASD, but more importantly, you have the patience, belief, and willingness to support students in all aspects of their development.

Location: Conveniently located in Leyland, just next to Junction 28 of the M6.
