It’s my pleasure to welcome you to PCT’s Learning Centre, where meeting the needs of your students is our top priority. We take pride in providing students with a quality, nurturing and supportive environment that is crucial for their overall development.
Our centre offers great facilities, which include:
an immersive multimedia room - The entire space comes alive in an immersive viewing experience to captivate the students imagination and engage them in learning.
a music studio - This room offers a versatile space which serves various purposes related to the creation, recording, editing and production of music, sound and video.
a sensory room - The sensory room is a dedicated space to create an inclusive and therapeutic environment that supports individuals in their sensory exploration, regulation and development. It aims to enhance sensory experiences, promote wellbeing and improve overall quality of life with individuals with their sensory-related challenges. It also provides a controlled setting where therapists can work with individuals to address specific sensory-related goals and improve sensory processing.
an art and textile room - The room is a dedicated space for creative activities, exploring light, colour and form using a variety of mediums, such as paint, pencil, pastels, textiles to produce 2D and 3D art.
We believe in collaborative working with schools, parents and partners for the good of the student. Our dedicated team is committed to helping each student reach their full potential and to excel in all aspects of their development. To achieve this, we develop and implement a personalised learning pathway for every student that breaks down barriers and targets their specific learning objectives.
Our Six Values underpin all the work we do that contributes to your students growing into healthy, successful adults.
Quality education: We deliver quality lessons by our dedicated teachers and assistants. Our lessons develop knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills to open doors to a variety of career paths.
Healthy relationships: Healthy relationships with family, friends and mentors play a vital role in a students development. Positive relationships promote emotional wellbeing, social skills and help students learn how to navigate interpersonal dynamics.
Opportunities for growth and exploration: We encourage students to explore their interests, try new things, and pursue their passions. This helps discover their talents, develop a sense of purpose and fosters creativity, resilience and a growth mindset.
Emotional and mental wellbeing: Prioritising mental wellbeing is pivotal to a student's success. Supporting them and teaching emotional intelligence, coping skills and resilience, helps them navigate challenges and generates positive mental wellbeing.
Physical health and wellbeing: We promote healthy habits, teaching the importance of undertaking regular exercise, eating a nutritious diet, taking adequate sleep and rest. These are all imperative to physical wellbeing and sets the foundation for a healthy lifestyle as they grow.
Instilling values and ethics: We teach students the values of kindness, honesty, respect and empathy. This helps shape their character, to become a responsible and compassionate person.
PCTs Personal Learning Programme run every day (students may be registered for one day or for as many as your student needs). It is specifically designed as an approach to addressing children’s needs, specifically those with SEMH needs, anxiety, trauma, ADHD and autism, through enrichment activities, developing their independence. This all goes alongside addressing some of the gaps they may have in their literacy and numeracy. Each session will be adapted based on the specific needs and dynamics of the participants.
We promote inclusivity by acknowledging and celebrating the diversity of the children in the course. Incorporate materials, stories, and examples that reflect different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences to ensure that all children feel represented and valued.
The course is facilitated by professionals who have expertise in child development, music therapy, play therapy as well as all areas of the curriculum. With our New Thrive Practitioner, we can work together to support your child’s development and learning, thus creating a safe and supportive environment for children to participate and engage in the activities effectively.
We know that each student is unique, and their needs may vary. We regularly assess and adapt the course to meet the specific needs of the children involved.
We believe our course will provide each young person with a unique opportunity to return to school with a toolkit to be able to manage and regulate their emotions and behaviour more effectively. They will be more independent and confident and will have closed some of the gaps they may have in their learning, so will be more able to participate alongside their peers.
