OUR MISSION

We are a team of dedicated, experienced mentors committed to helping our pupils succeed by providing comprehensive behaviour management support for children who present with emotional and behavioural difficulties.

 

Our pupils work alongside a mentor in school and work holistically to enable the individual to access successful learning by identifying unmet needs and addressing any challenges and difficulties they face.

 

Intervention may be through one-to-one discussions, group work or in-class support.

REINTEGRATION

Smithills reintegration area is a place where pupils go when they need a break from the main school lessons. It provides a supportive environment where they can reflect on the choices they make, complete work set by subject teachers, and receive guidance from staff. This helps them stay on track academically while also supporting them in managing and regulating their emotions.

 

 

THE BRIDGE

The Bridge is a dedicated, supportive space within the school premises that offers targeted support for pupils who may be experiencing challenges with behaviour, self-regulation or emotional wellbeing. They may be disengaged from learning, demonstrate considerable social challenges, as well as exhibiting impulsive and aggressive behaviour.

 

THE BRIDGE WILL

  • Support Key Stage 3 to successfully reintegrate fully into the main school education and re-engage positively with school life expectations.

  • Enable Key Stage 4 to successfully progress to the next stage of their education or training.

 

  • Referrals are considered on an individual basis to ensure that the Bridge is the most appropriate and supportive environment for a pupil’s needs.
