Learners leave Post 16 resilient; socially and emotionally ready to successfully progress in life beyond Alt Bridge, and to achieve personal success in their chosen pathway. They are supported with key life skills to aid their development and independence, as well as employability skills, meaning they are able to competently access further careers support or real work opportunities.
Learners are confident to try new things following the ability to explore interests in a safe and familiar environment. They have a good understanding of services and support in the local community to maintain positive mental health and well-being.
Learners have good self-esteem, physical health and confidence outside the classroom, obtained through extracurricular activities, such as Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and Forest School and leave Post 16 with meaningful qualifications to support their progression to further education, training or the world of work.
We have high expectations of our learners and assess their progress using a variety of formative and summative assessment methods across the year. This, with learner and parent voice, informs our curriculum planning, interventions and qualification offer.
Academic assessments are considered alongside social and emotional factors, progress through key interventions and evidence of progress towards individually planned outcomes, in order to inform our pupil progress meetings, support planning and EHCP annual reviews.
These factors ensure that we are able to maintain the highest standards and best support our learners to achieve their personal best and a range of accredited qualifications.
