What we do
At the Together Trust, we deliver individual care, support and education services across the North West.
We’re here to give students a voice in their future and get them ready for a happy, fulfilled adulthood. Our flexible curriculum means students can make choices about their education. And our support gives them the tools to succeed. Together we develop individual learning plans shaped to suit each student’s interests, needs and aspirations. So everyone leaves with the skills and self-confidence for their future.
Students will be supported through switch work and a total communication approach with a clear program of day care and activities that learners can access.
This focuses on 3 core principles:
On the Sensory pathway this will centre around maximising independence and self-advocacy, developing a learner’s control of the world around them.
Curriculum will work closely with the therapy teams (OT, SaLT, Physio, PBS, Medical) to maximise the potential of every learner. Learners on this pathway can have complex physical, developmental and medical needs which need careful planning and care from the whole MDT team.
Bridge offers all ‘Skills for Life’ students a foundational suite of curriculum subjects that provide a solid foundation of leaning and experiences that are meaningful and relevant. Through our unique Curriculum Offers there are a range of additional curriculum subjects and experiences that allow students to discover new topics and ways of seeing the world, enabling them to develop into rounded individuals.
Steps to Work offers a pathway for students to develop skills, knowledge, and attitudes that enable individuals to navigate various aspects of their personal and professional lives. Through a range of enterprise and employability-focused sessions, students will pursue their work aspirations, develop own career preparation skills and their personal development goals.
Our steps to work pathway also offers a pre internship course which consists of Employability skills, personal development as well as Maths and English
Our curriculum planning starts with you. Tell us what you like to do and what you hope for the future, and we’ll tailor a learning plan to help you get there. Our pathways include things like hospitality and catering, music and media, sports and outdoor education.
Everything we do is underpinned by the preparing for adulthood framework, helping students work towards their life ambitions. Prepare for all aspects of adulthood, from future work and community life, to independent, healthy living.
At Bridge College, we prepare our students for all aspects of adulthood, from community life to independent, healthy living and the world of work. We want everyone to leave feeling confident for their future.
Over the years students have been involved in fundraising events, volunteering and work experience that benefits the community
Success looks different for everyone. The important thing is to follow the right path for you.
If something matters to our students, it matters to us. Our student council is very active here at Bridge College.
They make sure our students can get involved and create the kind of learning community they want to be a part of.
