The Learning Centre

New for 2023 is our SEND Learning Centre. Designed as a Hub for our SEND students, the Learning Centre is a space for our students to learn in a small group environment or to attend interventions, targeted numeracy of literacy intervention. The space is evolving, there are some genuinely exciting plans to reshape what already exists.

Learning Centre 3 (LC3)

LC3 is an on-site provision to support and guide individual students in Key Stage 3 by developing confidence and character through their journey at Poltair and enabling students to take navigate their start in Secondary school leading into Key Stage 4.

It is coordinated by Miss Hillebrandt, who has experience working with students supporting Mental Health, Special Educational Needs and promoting well-being with an extensive Science background.

Support is identified individually and reviewed regularly by school, home, and students.

This may include but is not limited too.  

  • Identified Targeted Interventions such as Anxiety Awareness, Developing Resilience and Social Understanding
  • Bespoke Timetables.
  • Confidence building. 
  • Nurtured start providing the necessary tools for Secondary Education enabling fulfilment through to KS4 and beyond.

At Poltair, we believe that when students are comfortable with their feelings, they engage and move easily through their school day. LC3 recognises and values the uniqueness of every young person and students are encouraged and enabled to discover their own strengths to prepare themselves for life after Poltair.Accordion content
