Transforming Futures Trust

Press Release Courtlands Ofsted 17.06.24 (transformingfutures.org.uk)

The recent Ofsted report on Courtlands Special School is not reflective of the evidence and our ongoing improvements. We’re driving positive change, with substantial progress already made. We're committed to rapid and sustainable improvements.

Completing 'word of the week' when out at Trethorne Leisure today. Learning can take place anywhere.

“Oh I do like to be beside the seaside” Successful crabbing trip by the looks of the bucket! Did you know that the lifespan of a small crab averages 3 – 4 years, but larger species such as the giant Japanese spider crab can live as long as 100 years!

"Success sometimes may be dependent on academics, but it lies beyond academic excellence". Celebrating small wins creates a positive feedback loop and can create positive motivation. Well done to our students who improved their attendance last term!

Learning outside the Classroom (LOTC) is an integral part of our students timetable. A trip to the Lobster Hatchery to learn about local marine life and to explore what is being done to protect them. A great way for a kinaesthetic learner to spend her day!

More than ever, young people are under a significant amount of stress resulting in anxious, angry, overwhelmed feelings. Learning about the stress response helps them to understand what is going on, which empowers them to turn those feelings around.

Points mean prizes 🎉

Bodmin pupils were recently lucky enough in science to explore a pig’s heart, lungs and liver. All of the organs were connected, and we were even able to blow up the lungs using a straw.
