THE ROBERT BURNS ACADEMY

Our Supported Learning Centre is a specialist educational provision providing holistic support for young people with a wide range of Additional Support Needs.  Young people benefit from positive relationships with Key Teachers and Key Classroom Assistants and are included in a full curricular provision.  Young people undertake a variety of National Courses and Personal Achievement Awards both in school, out of doors and in the work place.

Our young people are very much at the centre of all supports and are included in mainstream classes where appropriate.  We work closely with parents, carers and partner agencies to ensure our Getting It Right For Every Child approach is successful.  Staff support young people using Restorative approaches, Resilience Building, Rights Based, Solution Oriented and Nurture provision. Staff regularly provide training for colleagues and work closely with the Educational Psychologist to provide a high quality provision where pupils are given opportunities to develop their skills and abilities in a safe, supportive environment.
