Welcome to Northcott School and Sixth Form College
Welcome to Northcott School We believe Northcott is not just a building, it is a community. It is a community that welcomes individuality, celebrates success and provides a bespoke learning experience. We believe that our pupils learn best when they are actively involved in their learning; are encouraged to become independent and enabled to grow in confidence. At Northcott we aim to meet all the social and academic needs of our pupils, however complex those needs may be. We empower our pupils to have a voice and to contribute through councils and groups. Our approach to learning is holistic and extends beyond the classroom, providing wrap around care, which teaches life skills and provides the best possible opportunities for our community of pupils to blossom; to grow socially and academically. Our Sixth Form College is a brand new provision based on our main school site, but with separate access. The sixth form is for young people aged 16-19. Our sixth form provision is open to pupils with an EHCP who have graduated through our school as well as young people from other educational provisions across the city, including other specialist settings. We continue to consider the environmental, sensory as well as academic needs of our young people.
