HomeSchool Profile

Welcome to The Willows School

Our Post 16 provision is designed to not only equip all of our young people with the necessary skills to succeed academically but with the employability skills needed to empower them to make positive and successful choices for their futures. We want them to be independent, confident and resilient adults who are fully prepared for their next steps. Our pupils are supported with making a successful transition from adolescence to adulthood, ensuring their readiness for independent living, further education and/or supported employment. It is important that our pupils are able to form positive relationships with others, having developed the skills and understanding of what is needed for healthy relationships.
