KS4 Provision

Welcome to Key Stage 4 (Years 10 & 11)

In Years 10 and 11, our students join our dedicated Key Stage 4 (KS4) provision, based at our site in Fleetwood. Catering for a small group of around 30 students, this specialised setting allows us to create a focused, supportive, and ambitious learning community.

Our main goal at KS4 is to prepare our students for adulthood and life after school. We build on the solid foundations developed in Key Stage 3, focusing on nurturing independence, achieving future aspirations, and improving the life chances of every young person.

A Curriculum for Success

We deliver a high-quality, tailored curriculum designed to maximise opportunities and build confidence. Our approach is built on three key pillars:

Academic Learning: Students work towards valuable qualifications, including GCSEs and other nationally recognised awards. Our skilled teachers ensure learning is engaging and helps students achieve their very best.
Vocational Skills: We offer hands-on, practical courses that build real-world work skills. This helps students explore different career paths and discover their passions in a supportive environment.
Personal and Social Development: This is at the heart of everything we do. Through targeted support and enrichment activities, we help students develop their confidence, self-regulation, resilience, and empathy. Our outstanding pastoral team works to identify and overcome any historical barriers to learning.

Guidance, Independence & Responsibility

We empower our students to become confident, resourceful, and well-rounded individuals.

Our wraparound programme of Personal and Social Development (PSD), BTEC Workskills qualification, and Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance (CEIAG) programme help students explore their options for after they leave us, whether that’s moving on to college, training, or employment.

As students move through KS4, they are given a greater degree of choice and independence. This approach helps them take responsibility for their actions and understand how positive conduct, consistent effort, and success lead to fantastic outcomes.
