The FAR Academy

We are always inclusive, affirming, & proud!

We welcome and celebrate young people of all genders, sexual orientations, religions, and identities. Their safety is our priority.

Experts in mental health and neurodiversity

We support learners who face barriers to mainstream education, including those with anxiety, depression, trauma, autism, dyslexia, hypermobility, etc.

Highly experienced, compassionate staff

Our teachers, support staff, and volunteers work closely together to provide an engaging curriculum in a safe setting.

We aim for progress that feels achievable

Our curriculum is varied, flexible, and personalised, allowing steady progress that builds confidence and real skills for a positive future.

For students needing something different

Those who may have disengaged, struggled, or felt excluded elsewhere, rediscover confidence, motivation, and belonging.

Always focussing on what the future holds.

We prepare our students for their future; for employment, training, or further education with meaningful qualifications and renewed self-belief.

The FAR Academy is a full-time, independent, specialist post-16 college for young people with EHCPs, including those who experience challenges with their social, emotional, and mental health.

We ensure that all our students will always find themselves in a safe, caring environment where they can continue their education at their own pace, without pressure, judgement, or overwhelm.
