Reach your potential. Be ambitious. Aim high.
The Virtual School doesn’t exist as a real building but we are here to work with you, your school, carers and social workers to make sure you receive the best education possible and develop skills and knowledge for a successful future.
We promise to:
- make sure you have a school place and access to education
- make sure you go to the best school for your needs
- always try to make sure you don't have to change school in Years 6 or 11, except in exceptional circumstances
- support you in learning to read and to enjoy reading
- make sure you have a PEP (Personal Education Plan) meeting three times a year
- make sure the Pupil Premium is used to help improve your learning
- make sure you are given the right sort of advice on careers or further education
- encourage and support your Post-16 learning
- support your carer and social worker to take an active role in your education
- encourage you to have hobbies and attend out of school activities
