Pivot Academy Bradley KS4
Here at The Pivot Academy in Bradley, Kirklees, the school offers two different types of provision based within one site:
The Bungalow is a specialised centre for young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health concerns and for students with an Education, Care and Health Plan in place. We follow a therapeutic and nurturing approach to our education; our core curriculum content focuses on English, Maths and PSHE and in addition we support students who may be struggling with a wide range of personal development issues.
Pivot 6 is a centre specifically for KS4 children who have been permanently excluded from mainstream school. Our curriculum is based on core academics, creativity and personal development but also has a clear focus on developing children's softer skills. Our aim in Pivot 6 is to support students academically and socially and to prepare them for transition back into mainstream school.
