Bromley Virtual School
The Bromley Virtual School are a group of professionals who work closely with you, your school and your carers /parent, to support your educational journey and make sure you’re getting the help you may need. We don’t have a building but like any other school; we have a Head Teacher, who alongside teaching staff, monitor your attendance, support your learning and ensure you are reaching your academic targets.
What we do?
As a Virtual School we:
- We make sure you are in a great early years setting.
- We support your carers to choose a great primary school for you.
- We make sure that you get into a secondary school of your choice and that you are consistently attending.
- We monitor the progress you are making at school and offer you additional support where necessary.
- We support you with further education (college, university etc.), should you wish to take this path.
- We make sure that you have a Personal Education Plan (PEP) and are able to meet twice a year. A personal education plan or PEP is an educational document that describes how we will help you to reach your full academic potential. It is a legal requirement that you have one and it must be reviewed at least twice a year.
- We organise exciting projects to keep you motivated about learning. We offer projects such as Breakthrough. Breakthrough is delivered by Drive Forward and is a ground-breaking programme which has been designed to empower young people aged 14-16 to create an exciting future and overcome any challenges along the way. They offer positive relationships, fun activity days, residential experiences and consistent one-to-one support over what could be the most important 3 years of your lives. If you want to find out more about the project, speak to your social worker or bring it up at your next PEP meeting.
If you would like to speak to someone about the support you are receiving with your education please contact the Virtual School on 0208 461 7750.
