Part of the New Bridge Multi Academy Trust, The Springboard Project, based in Oldham town centre, provides high quality, innovative alternative educational experiences for pupils and students with SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health difficulties) across the 14-19 age range. Here at the Project, we believe passionately in supporting our students to achieve their very best outcomes and overcome their barriers to learning.
Our Provision
Our provision is set up to provide high quality, innovative educational support for 14-19-year-olds with SEMH needs. Our aim is to meet the needs of our young people where they are, supporting them to gain the skills, knowledge, and experience necessary to transition into fulfilling life beyond education. We are committed to supporting every student into employment, further education, or training once they leave us at 19.
Our Promises
* Gain a minimum of 4 Level 2 (GCSE or equivalent) qualifications, including Maths and English, with access to Level 3 qualifications, including T-Levels, as appropriate
* Gain a vocational qualification in a pathway of their choice
* Develop employability and life skills, including recognised qualifications
* Have real, meaningful work experiences, including being allocated a career coach, who will stay with them post-19
Community Support
We believe in supporting our wider community and families through initiatives like our 'Project Pantry', a resource for families struggling with the cost of living crisis. Our partnerships with external agencies enable us to support young people up to the age of 25, ensuring successful transition into adulthood.
