Learning Support

The Bridge

The Bridge is a calm learning environment that you can be referred to by the Inclusion team to access support. In here we offer a variety of interventions for students who may be finding their learning challenging or need help with their well-being.

 We provide:

• A calm space at social times such as break and lunch for students who prefer less noisy and busy areas

• A Bridge timetable for students to complete personalised interventions about confidence, self esteem and well-being

• Time out area for students to be calm and reflect

• Breakfast club at break times

• IT facilities to access learning materials

• A safe place to report incidents

The PLC (Personalised Learning Centre)

The PLC is a safe place, where you can access your learning and be supported by our PLC staff.

Expectations of behaviour and conduct in the area are exactly the same as everywhere else in school.

Students use the PLC if they are:

• completing interventions linked to subjects, behaviour, emotions, self esteem etc

• having a time out/step out in lesson

• injured and cannot walk around the academy or we feel it is safer for you to be in the PLC
