Across our Federation our curriculum is deliberately planned from its start to ambitious end points. We prioritise safety and personal development. We believe this helps prepare our pupils for adulthood and life in modern Britain.
We ensure adaptations are made so that pupils, upon entry, learn the right knowledge and skills at the right time. For example, some pupils starting mid-year may recap and cover previous topics and learning to ensure their knowledge is secure.
We offer a broad, balanced and flexible academic and social curriculum, which is accessible to all our learners and we try to ensure that they are fully included in all aspects of our school life. We have the highest expectations of all our students. We plan our curriculum and each lesson to extend our student’s knowledge and experience of a variety of subjects, other cultures, languages and different celebrations. We ensure that our curriculum reflects the need for future economical outcomes for our learners and the diversity of our society – not just one group. We encourage our students to explore the differences and diversity of people in a positive way and we actively seek to combat all forms of discrimination.
Burton PRU enters students for a range of qualifications with a variety of examination boards. We offer a range of qualifications from Entry Level, Level 1 and Level 2 qualifications, which are fully recognised by employers and Further/Higher Education. Our staff are excellent in planning dynamic, progressive, fun learning experiences for all students who want to learn to learn in a pleasant, non-judgemental / confrontational way.
