For young people in care, education provides the essential foundation that will equip them with the necessary skills to become successful and independent adults.

At 24/7, education is a priority.  Having our own education facility 24/7 College, we are able to offer residential pupils the opportunity to access foundation skills for their future role in society.  Education extends beyond the achievement of academic ability to the enhancement of problem solving skills that apply to daily life.

Class sizes are small and the young people are expected to adhere to classroom codes of conduct.  Young people are grouped for lessons according to their ability and need with the maximum number in each group being 6.

Individual consideration is given to the overall needs of each young person and suitable programmes of work are designed to present them with best possible opportunities for learning and achievement.  Flexible learning plans are designed to link both care and education team members in the implementation of academic, social, vocational and cultural learning.

Our ability to delivery National Curriculum subjects and examinations is further enhanced by relationships we have developed with other organisations and eduction providers within the locality.  We have established strong links with local colleges of further education, vocational qualification providers and local employers enabling our young people to attend full and/or part-time courses, work experience and vocational training placements, dependent upon their age and ability.
