Our Aim

To meet the needs of all our students by developing their ability to be independent responsible learners. In this way we will raise aspirations, unlock potential and work to achieve excellence through encouraging a “can do” culture which nurtures confident and competent people.

Our Ethos

Is based on “Every day is a fresh start”. This allows for mistakes to be made and risks taken with learning in an environment that is safe and caring. We believe that we are all different and equal and it is our commitment to inclusion, compassion and understanding throughout all aspects of the life and culture of the school.

Our Values

Our learning ethos is firmly rooted in our code of conduct and the values which arise from our purpose statement and our ethos. Our goal is that these will permeate every aspect of school life. We will continually measure and evaluate our performance using the code of conduct and the values as our guide.

WELCOME TO CAVENDISH SCHOOL

WELCOME TO CAVENDISH SCHOOL

Cavendish school was set up in June 2000 to provide broad and balanced education for children who have been excluded from mainstream schools. It is a happy and safe environment which provides National Curriculum subjects and a host of additional sports and activities. There is a team of committed and professional staff, and specialist support for those with emotional, behavioural or literacy difficulties. Often our pupils come from difficult backgrounds and our aim is to help them not only benefit from learning but to build up skills and social confidence for the many years of adult life which follows. We have strong links to the appropriate services in the local community and involve Careers Advisors, the Health Service, Police, Local Colleges and the Youth Services in order to widen the curriculum and provide motivation.
