It is a centre of education for our most vulnerable students and for those students who require the highest level of support to give them equality in life.

We operate the Resource Base with absolute integrity having strong moral principles with the students, and we are extremely proud of our Resource Base students and staff, just as we are with all members of the school community.

Working with students and the team of staff in the Resource Base provides a combination of challenge and reward, with a huge sense of achievement evident for many students on a daily basis. To be a successful member of the team you need to have empathy, compassion, resilience, and an absolute belief that all students are capable of achievement. You need to share our commitment that all students deserve high aspirations that can be achieved through a balance of individual, personal and academic achievement.
PSHE is a core part of this offer. Our PSHE curriculum is essential to the education of the children in our Resource Base. It prepares students for an understanding of the world around them, and how to be citizens within it. It prepares them for challenges, and potential vulnerabilities that they face in their lives.
