Welcome to Pathways Learning Centre Alternative Provision (AP) Academy, a short stay school for students who are temporarily unable to access their home school, and for students with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) needing specific support. Proud to be part of Enable Trust.

Pathways Learning Centre AP Academy, provides education and support for a broad range of young people with varying needs, aged between 5-16 years old.  We are a short stay school supporting students who may be temporarily unable to attend their home school for a variety of reasons, and a long term placement for students with EHCPs, who will benefit from the specific specialist support provided by PLC. The vast majority of students are supported to return to their home school, or transition to a new school or setting. A small number of students stay with us long term to complete their education.  We work closely with many partners including parents/carers, schools, SEND teams, CAMHS, Educational Psychology, FYPS, Youth Offending Team, Health Services and Social Care to provide the best support possible.
