Case Studies
What our student's say about us:
" I just love coming because I learn and have a laugh with the teachers. I learn new things every day." Joe, 15, Runcorn
" I would say that you should come to Belmont School because the school is good for GCSEs and the teachers help you alot." Carl, 15, Todmorden
"The staff help you alot with your education." Dean, 14, Rochdale
"I think the sanction system is strict but reasonable. Also you get more help with two members of staff in a class and the groups are smaller." Sonny, 14, Manchster
"It is a good school to come to. If you behave you get to do fun things." Tommy, 13, Burnley
"You make friends, the lessons are fun and the staff are fun." Lee, 12, Rossendale
"You get a good education and especially at Belmont because you get a chance to go to college in year 11." Jason, 11, Burnley
"Come to the school it is the best in the world." Connor, 11, Padiham
And what their parents/carers say:
“I just wanted to write a small note to thank you for everything you have done for Anthony. He has changed so much since starting at Belmont. He’s happy in himself and he now looks forward to coming to school. This is thanks to you. I want to thank you for giving him a chance to prove himself when I don’t think anyone else would have done.”
“Twelve months ago my child was told he was disruptive, aggressive and a ‘no-hoper’. He hated school, he hated his teachers and I think he hated us. His mainstream school couldn’t cope with him and to be honest I felt the same. All I wanted was my happy child back and not this stranger!
Even though he has only been with you a short time the difference in him is quite simply amazing. I don’t fight to get him to go to school anymore, and he arrives home smiling. He is talked to at school and the teachers listen. For the first time ever he has come home and discussed his school work with me. He has respect for his teachers, he behaves and I don’t feel like a failure any more. The staff concentrate on the positives and just deal with the negatives when they arise. I don’t worry about him whilst he’s at school knowing he is in your capable hands.”
“We are foster carers and have a child placed at Belmont School. Since we places the child last September we have found staff and support teachers to be of a very high standard. It is very important to communicate on a daily basis to meet the child’s identified individual needs, Belmont keep us informed on a regular basis via telephone, post and face to face contact, this gives a very clear message not only to our child but to all the children in the school. Belmont School is the right place for our child and we will also be sending our youngest Foster Children to Belmont when that time comes.
We are only too pleased to confirm Belmont School has delivered and we can highly recommend the others to the school.”
