Description
The Green Room Foundation runs schools in Windsor, Berkshire (GRW) and Kingsley, Hampshire (GRK) for young people who can no longer access mainstream education. Using a combination of therapeutic, academic, creative, and physical education, we aim to significantly change the lives of our pupils and their families, to start a path to a better life. Pupils are given the opportunity to rise above the negative experiences they’ve endured. We instil a willingness to learn and an opportunity to change. The team reignite a passion for learning, raise attendance and academic levels.
Most importantly we build in them a confidence to go on and lead brilliant lives and be brilliant people. The school also run a 6th Form that is designed to help pupils continue their path to adulthood. Many of the pupils have already attended The Green Room School, and this extra time helps to prepare them for post 16 education or work. Pupils who have graduated from GR6 can progress to The Graduate Scheme. The aim of the scheme is to assist pupils bridge the gap between leaving school and the world of work with a bespoke programme of preparation and experience.
Both GR6 and Graduate Scheme pupils are based at The Swan Pub in Windsor. The Swan provides a unique setting for pupils to continue their education, gain useful skills and become part of their community. The environment will be safe and nurturing but also provide opportunities for challenge and change.
