Inclusion Department

Study & Reflection Centre

This is used to deal with immediate issues in school and for offences such as defiance, as an alternative to a fixed-term exclusion.

PACE Room

This is run by Mrs Igoe and is used as an alternative or in addition to a fixed-term exclusion. This room gives us the capacity to work with students and identify causes of challenging behaviour and put tailored programmes in place to support them.

Student Support Centre

Mrs Burgess manages the Student Support Centre, a provision that students can access, which provides support for a wide range of needs. 

The table below explains how the school’s Inclusion Department and Study Support Centre function. These rooms are key in supporting students with a range of needs.
