Our vision

To set no limits on what we can achieve

Purpose

To inspire and enable children and young people to grow in confidence and re-engage with learning following an acquired brain injury.

Values

Growth – To support pupils to participate in school with the greatest independence and efficacy possible both during and after placement

Respect – To compassionately support pupils and their families to navigate their newly acquired needs

Curiosity – To courageously explore our own potential as a whole school community

We are a medical pupil referral unit (PRU) providing education for children and young people admitted to The Children’s Trust, Tadworth, for rehabilitation programmes following an acquired brain injury (ABI). Some of our pupils may have special educational needs resulting from a degenerative syndrome or condition. Pupils are admitted for between 6 and 12 weeks on average, and come from all over the UK.

We know that the children and young people who come to us are facing enormous difficulties and that they, their families and their carers need support and understanding.

The education staff at Surrey Teaching Centre include qualified teachers and skilled teaching assistants who have a wealth of knowledge and experience. Teamwork is a key component of our ethos and we work closely with other professionals within The Children’s Trust team.

Our children and young people are all individuals and on admission, all pupils have a comprehensive assessment of their needs resulting in a personalised curriculum. We focus on the areas highlighted by the assessment and incorporate specific learning strategies for pupils with an acquired brain injury. Our personal pathways provision is a strength of our curriculum.
