Welcome from the Headteacher

Welcome to our website! The Manchester Secondary PRU is an established Pupil Referal Unit which operates as part of the wider City of Manchester Learning Partnership with Bridgelea Primary School.

The recent establishment of the Partnership in 2020 is an exciting opportunity to develop a continuous and holistic education system to support young people with complex needs by:

Leading a creative and high quality curriculum;

Promoting inclusion for some of Manchester’s most vulnerable young people;

Developing a nurturing and safe environment for all pupils across a number of settings

We work closely with our mainstream partners to promote the Manchester Inclusion Strategy; a city wide initiative to ensure that the most vulnerable young people in Manchester receive the education that they deserve. 

At MSPRU, we teach the same National Curriculum and offer the same level of qualifications as a mainstream school. However, as well as the academic work we help pupils address their emotional and behavioural barriers to learning.

Each of our centres have experienced teachers and support staff who work with other professionals and services to provide a wraparound service to help our learners develop and meet their specific needs.

We hope you enjoy exploring our website and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
