Service

Positive Futures

We understand that mainstream education is not for every student, so we work in complete collaboration with schools who identify those young people who are becoming detached from mainstream education, to offer a blend, with the aim to fully reintegrate them back into school life. We can also support those year 11 students who are work ready into long term work placements to further enhance their future opportunities.

Attendance registers are taken and fed back to schools by the start of sessions both morning and afternoon. We will contact students who do not attend and update schools.

Progress reviews from key workers will be shared with schools and regular contact enables Positive Futures and the School to ensure each student has the best possible opportunity to reach their full potential. We welcome schools to come along and see the students on their days with us to show the students that we work together.
