The Springboard Project has won several awards for its ‘ground-breaking’ approach to educating young people
A one-of-a-kind school in Oldham designed for pupils with ‘turbulent histories’ has been praised by Ofsted as a ‘a happy place in which to learn’. The Springboard Project on Phoenix Street provides support and care for kids with social, emotional and mental health needs who’ve had a difficult time with schooling.
“But they’re acting like that because the world around them causes them trauma and they don’t know how to do it differently. We need a whole new view of education for these young people.” Ofsted inspector Elizabeth Stevens wrote in the report that the school was ‘ambitious’ for its pupils and that there were ‘highly respectful relationships’ between staff and pupils.
