The aim of Windlehurst School is to re-engage our pupils in their education, through well planned, engaging and appropriately differentiated lessons, designed to meet individual needs. Pupils are taught in small groups with a high ratio of staff to pupils and in a supportive environment.
Along with the Key Stage 3 and 4 curriculums, we offer Engage activities such as Forest School, Swimming, City in the Community and for some pupils, practical off site learning leading to qualifications in a work place environment.
