Personalised placements for learners aged 11–16. We offer flexible, referral-based places with vocational pathways, functional skills and steady pastoral support.
We accept referrals for young people in Years 7–11 who need a different approach to learning. Many students come with EHCPs, behaviour plans or individual learning plans and do best in small, practical groups.
We keep this simple and supportive. Here’s what happens after a referral is made:
We accept referrals from schools and local authorities across the region. We currently support learners from:
Each referral is carefully reviewed to ensure we can meet the learner’s needs before confirming a placement.
Students can attend up to five sessions each week, depending on their individual plan. Sessions may be arranged as mornings, afternoons, or a mix of both.
Where needed, transport is supported. Students may be collected from their home school and safely returned at the end of each session.
When a placement starts we concentrate on continuous progress and the learner’s well, being. The instruction combines hands, on vocational work with integration of English, maths and ICT. Weekly PSHE and careers sessions are designed to increase independence and prepare for the future.
We run regular progress checks, hold EHCP reviews as required and keep parents updated with clear, simple reports.
We collaborate with schools, families and local support services across Wolverhampton. That includes CAMHS, social care, virtual school teams and other agencies to ensure a coherent plan for education, wellbeing and transition.
Safeguarding is central to everything we do. Our staff receive regular training, we have trained DSLs and a clear policy framework, and we monitor attendance and welfare closely.
If you’re a parent or a referring professional, we’ll guide you through the paperwork and next steps. Send referrals and documents to:

Please include any EHCPs, recent reports and contact details. We aim to respond promptly and coordinate the next steps carefully.
Once enrolled, parents receive access to our Arbor system for updates, communication and key information.
