About Active Journeys
We believe every young person deserves the chance to succeed — regardless of the challenges they face.
Our Mission
Active Journeys is an inclusive Alternative Education Provision supporting children and young people from age 8 across Key Stages 2, 3, and 4. We support young people with SEND, SEMH needs, medical needs, reintegration placements, and full-time Alternative Provision. We also welcome elective home educated children.
Our aim is to provide a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where students can rebuild confidence, develop life skills, and experience success.
We combine education, sport, outdoor learning, and personal development to create an environment where young people feel motivated, supported, and able to thrive.

Our Approach
Personalised Learning
Every pupil follows a timetable built around their individual needs, interests, and goals. No two programmes are the same.
Sport & Outdoor Learning
Physical activity develops teamwork, leadership, resilience, and emotional regulation — skills that last a lifetime.
Small Groups & 1:1
Smaller settings allow staff to build genuine relationships and provide the consistent support students need to thrive.
Accredited Qualifications
Students achieve nationally recognised awards through ASDAN and other accredited programmes, building confidence and future prospects.
Safeguarding First
All staff are trained in safeguarding, mental health first aid, and SEND-inclusive practice. Student safety is our top priority.
Transport Provided
We provide transport to and from the provision, removing barriers to attendance and supporting families.
Experienced, Qualified Staff
Our team brings extensive experience from mainstream schools, alternative provision, and youth development. Every member is trained to the highest standards.
