Description

Manchester Vocational and Learning Academy is Independent Secondary school in Not applicable for kids aged 11 to 16. They teach an alternative curriculum to young people who struggle to cope in a mainstream setting.

Facilities

  • MVLA recognizes that each child is an individual. They provide a nurturing, safe and stimulating environment for learners, to achieve their full potential – educationally, socially and emotionally.
  • They aim to provide high quality education and pastoral care to pupils who struggle within the mainstream education system. They work with pupils on a one to one basis or in small groups. They work with families, schools and other agencies to promote effective inclusion of all students, to ensure they achieve their full potential and, where possible, return to mainstream schools.
  • The teachers are experienced in dealing with students who struggle to manage their behaviour. They offer specialised support for students with special educational needs or who speak English as an additional language.  All staff possesses an enhanced DBS disclosure and the qualifications and experience required to fulfil their role.

Features

Things to note

The students study GCSEs in Maths, English Language, English Literature, Biology and Citizenship. They also offer a range of vocational subjects, creative activities and PE. Lessons are taught to small groups so that teachers can cater for an individual’s specific personal and academic needs.

All children will be taught in groups based on their ability, allowing them to receive the support that they require. As well as one to one and small group support, extra support will also be offered to EAL pupils by qualified teachers. Each child’s progress both from a pastoral and academic view will be carefully monitored with regular feedback to carers, schools and other relevant agencies. 

Alongside main curriculum they also offer extra-curricular activities. They are currently offering additional after-school revision sessions:

Monday – Science
Wednesday – Maths
Thursday – English
