Our Preparation for Adulthood (PfA) programme is designed to support students into adulthood by providing them with opportunities to increase their confidence and awareness of employment, good health, relationships, friendships, independent living and community inclusion.
Greenbank College provides a holistic and ambitious approach to PfA, which meets the strengths and needs of individual students and offers coherently planned and sequenced teaching and learning to build sufficient knowledge and skills for future learning.
The PfA curriculum is designed to raise the aspirations of students, their families and the community by an increased focus on ‘what a good life looks like for me’. We enable students to grow a supportive network, which they can continue to rely on as they leave Greenbank College.
Breadth and balance are provided through a rolling programme of embedded termly topic themes, which are relevant and linked to the PfA pathways:
- Everyday Maths
- Cooking
- Personal hygiene
- Daily living
- Nutrition
- Relationships and sex education
- Physical fitness and wellbeing
Greenbank has a number of partnerships with external organisations to enrich the delivery of some of our PfA topics, such as The Incvlusive Hub and the Be Free Campaign.
