Our school offer

Our aim is to provide pupils with a range of opportunities so that they can reach their full potential.

Redefining education

We redefine education by seamlessly integrating three essential pillars: education therapy on futures. We don't just educate; we nurture support and propel our pupils towards a future where their potential knows no bounds. Join us on a transformative journey, where education extends beyond textbooks, therapy and nurtures resilience, and futures are shaped with purpose and promise.

Education

We foster an excitement and a love of learning in our pupils by following the national curriculum. Our curriculum and tasks set are challenging yet achievable, enabling children and young people to grow in confidence and prepare for life beyond the classroom. We also provide enrichment activities through educational visits and field trips to support and enhance learning experiences.

With a backdrop of our small class sizes, with no more than nine pupils per class, each child and young person receives a bespoke curriculum tailored to their needs, which is fully integrated with our social development programme.

Our commitment to a well-rounded education includes a focus on social development. Through activities that promote collaboration, friendship, social interaction, and teamwork, pupils build essential interpersonal skills. These experiences help them develop communication, empathy, and the ability to work well with others. By developing friendships and a sense of community, children and young people learn to value diverse perspectives and support one another, creating a positive and inclusive learning environment that strengthens their social growth.

The results speak for themselves as young people leave us with nationally recognised outcomes at a level that is right for them, ranging from entry-level certificates to functional skills, BTECs and GCSEs. This equips them to confidently take their next steps into further education, apprenticeships or employment.

Our outstanding offer

We provide unique learning opportunities for our pupils to help them engage with learning so that they can develop skills and grow in confidence to become proud members of our school community.

We have officially partnered with the Johan Cruyff Foundation, which was set up by one of the world’s greatest sporting icons. The aim of the organisation is to support and develop sports activities for children and young people all over the world. 

Our state of the art Cruyff Court, is an all-weather pitch which supports small group sports, including football, basketball, volleyball and netball, and an additional grassed field area. The aim of the space is where pupils can grow, make friends and improve their mental health. 

Our nurturing and inspirational environment is the perfect backdrop for pupils to engage in learning.    All classrooms in primary and secondary have access to spacious classrooms with dedicated reading rooms and adjoining outdoor areas enabling children and young people to step in and out of session to stay calm and engage in learning flexibly in a space that they are familiar with.

In primary, pupils access dedicated learning spaces for subjects, including food technology, science and art rooms. By accessing the rooms, they start to prepare for transitions to secondary. This access mirrors the experiences of their older peers, inspiring them for the next steps of their journey in education.

The outdoor spaces pupils access during break and lunchtimes is where we witness friendships blossom and confidence grow. All year round we witness amazing growth and development where there are opportunities for team sports or solo activities, where children and young people can play football with staff, tackle climbing obstacles, reach new heights and perfect techniques on the trampolines, while also build their strength using the outdoor fitness equipment.

On arrival at school, pupils are welcomed by staff and offered the option to have breakfast, where an array of options are available to kick-start a day of learning.

At lunch, everyone comes together to enjoy our delicious menu that offers a wide variety of familiar and unfamiliar dishes, giving children and young people the opportunity to expand their taste buds with new flavours and textures. We encourage independence as they select from an array of choices, making lunchtime a fun and exciting experience for everyone.

We believe reading is an important part of learning and is equally joyful which is why each classroom has a dedicated reading room, stocked with a diverse collection of fiction and non-fiction books for pupils to explore.

Reading is a lifelong skill and a gateway to both academic and personal growth. It exposes pupils to diverse cultures, perspectives, and experiences, fostering empathy and tolerance. Ultimately, it equips children and young people with critical skills, broadens their understanding of the world, and supports their growth and development.

Wednesday mornings start with a themed assembly, covering a range of topics, varying from awareness campaigns to local initiatives. After the assembly, pupils spend their first lesson of the day discussing the assembly theme, for example, following the Air Ambulance Week assembly, everyone brainstormed fundraising ideas. This session fosters social, moral, spiritual, and cultural (SMSC) development, helping children and young people to engage with local and broader community issues. Each class also maintains a scrapbook to document their ideas and creations during these sessions.

Each day concludes with a 15-minute reflection session. This time offers pupils with the chance to reflect on what they’ve done well, what they’re proud of, and areas for improvement. It also serves as a moment to prepare them  for the next day, such as informing them about themed days or events, visitors and outings, helping them feel more settled.

Therapy

Our on-site Clinical Team provide pupils with unrivalled levels of therapeutic support, in terms of the level of expertise, the ratio of qualified therapists and clinicians to children and young people, and the range of therapies offered. Pupils have the support of our Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists and other specialists as required.

We believe that unless a child or young person is able to feel emotionally safe and secure, they are less likely to fulfil their personal, social and educational potential. Our unique approach to supporting young people through our Wave Model enables them to go on to realise a future filled with aspiration and achievement.

Luxborough Court School's Clinical Team complete thorough and skilled assessments that support a shared understanding of the complex needs we see in our children and young people. This enables us to put purposeful and appropriate interventions in place and assess our effectiveness through the tracking of outcomes and impact.

Futures

At Luxborough Court School we are dedicated to raising the aspirations of our pupils, while also equipping them with the skills and confidence to realise outstanding outcomes.

The Futures programme inspires and connects pupils with their next steps beyond education, utilising a growing network of over 350 employer partnerships, including the likes of Microsoft, Mercedes and John Lewis, to provide outstanding experiences of the workplace and ongoing opportunities and support.

Our Futures sessions provide practical guidance on job applications, confidence-building, networking, and workplace expectations, giving children and young people the tools to navigate their career paths with clarity. Complementing this, our Futures curriculum enriches academic growth while developing personal development and career readiness, ensuring they are prepared for their chosen paths. With no upper age limit on support, the programme boasts a 100% success rate in transitioning students into education, employment, or training.
