About

I am very proud to be Principal of Bridge Academy. We are a school with big aspirations where we ensure your child will be treated with care, respect and helped to re-engage with their learning so that they can either return to mainstream education, successfully transfer to more specialist provision or develop the skills to transition into a successful adulthood.

Our children are encouraged to explore and discover through exciting learning opportunities. We provide a calm, safe and inclusive environment where positive behaviour and mutual respect is modelled.

We are developing a broad and balanced curriculum to support the progress of children, whilst celebrating their uniqueness enabling each child to grow in confidence, resilience and self worth. Our curriculum is built to stimulate participation and support their holistic wellbeing by ensuring your child has access to relevant learning challenges and opportunities to flourish.

Bridge Academy offers opportunities to understand a child's needs and build relationships whilst also supporting them to develop strategies and skills to become life long learners and active members of their communities.
