Raise confidence and boost the academic achievement of your pupils in the core subjects

With our PRU-specific programme, you can positively act to prevent vulnerable learners from slipping behind or out of the education system altogether.

This might include pupils:

At risk of exclusion or disengagement
Who have missed learning due to medical health issues
Whose emotional or mental health has impacted their learning capacity
With specific SEND needs

We can visit you at your location to provide a demonstration and discuss our tailored provision for your pupils.

"Academy 21 has been nothing short of amazing. The level of support and nurturing is invaluable to students who use the programme. I cannot recommend them enough."

Matt Nelson

"Flexibility is key to the educational success of our students. While most students typically have to mould their lives around their schooling schedule, our pupils require that flexibility to schedule their education around their needs."

Tom Webb

Greenwood, Secondary PRU (New Forest)

"Many of our students have progressed onto post-16 options, and a huge part of that success is due to the flexibility of the education we’re able to provide with Academy21."
