ALP Connect Schools
At Advance Learning Partnership (ALP), we are committed to ensuring that every child receives the highest quality education, tailored to their individual needs. Our schools work together to achieve this shared goal, guided by our values and belief that every child deserves the very best opportunities to succeed.
A key part of our inclusive offer is the network of specialist ALP Connect Schools. These are fully integrated schools within our Trust, designed to provide children with the bespoke education, care, and support they need to thrive.
There are three Connect Schools, each with a clear focus on meeting specific and often complex needs:
Each is led by skilled professionals with specialist expertise, ensuring children receive personalised support and targeted interventions that make a real difference to their education and development.
What makes Connect Schools unique is their strong link to our wider family of schools. Children remain part of their home school community, usually spending part of each day there alongside their peers, while also accessing the specialist support of their Connect School. This dual approach builds confidence, strengthens belonging, and helps maintain vital connections with their school community.
Our Schools and Connect Schools work closely together to ensure a smooth transition and, when the time is right, a carefully planned reintegration back into the home school. Our purpose is to meet each child’s needs, enable them to succeed, and support their home school whilst continuing to meet those needs once they return.
