Abbey Manor College: Broadoak Campus

Abbey Manor College is an 11-19 PRU based in Lewisham, South London. Students are drawn from a borough which reflects a diverse urban community with more than 170 languages spoken. Over 40% of the population are from black or minority ethnic communities, a figure which rises to around 72% within the school population. Nearly 22, 000 households have no adult in employment and 17. 8% are lone-parent households, compared with 11. 6% in the rest of Inner London. The College is on two sites: the John Evelyn Campus in Ladywell is for KS4 students and includes a new short-term intervention programme. The Broadoak Campus in Lee offers programmes for KS3, KS4 & KS5. The College also manages specialist assessment services for the Local Authority and provision for year 11 students new to the Borough. Students are admitted to the College throughout the academic year, depending on when they are excluded. At Key Stage 3, all students have been permanently excluded from mainstream schools and the College makes every effort to reintegrate them back into school. In Key Stage 4, most students have been permanently excluded, with about 30% referred from school because they are on the verge of permanent exclusion. This is a long-term intervention strategy since all students in Key Stage 4 remain at the College for the remainder of their statutory schooling. The College also offers 6th form provision for students who are too vulnerable to access post-16 education at the end of KS4. Abbey Manor students are drawn from working class families, many of whom rely on state benefits to survive. A significant number of students are also from lone parent households. The College receives Pupil Premium for all our students. In addition to high levels of learning support, the College also provides free breakfast and lunch for all students.
