Learning by Doing
How a Vocational Curriculum can allow success for all.
Falcons Learning has a unique curriculum that has been designed with the needs of it's learners at its heart. We understand that mainstream education is not for everyone. We understand that some learners need a different approach where the stresses and barriers to achievement have been removed. With the Independent school standards and curriculum design central the courses are selected and designed especially for those that struggled in mainstream learning. Falcons Learning maintain a rigour and demand for quality to ensure the best chances for our learners.
​
Technical teaching aside the central pillar of the school is an ethos of understanding, mutual respect and values. Everyone has something to bring to the table - we will help to make the most of those talents.
