Description
Cornerstone Academy is Independent Primary school in Cheshire East for kids aged 5 to 11 (Gender - Mixed )
Cornerstone Academy is an innovative and different type of school that provides opportunities for children in year 1 to year 6, who currently present as unable to meet the demands of mainstream provision, to re-engage with their learning and re-ignite a love of learning. It is the conviction that these children have tremendous potential and at Cornerstone they aim to unlock this potential regardless of background, ability or disposition. When a child joins them at one of our sites at Crewe or Congleton, they will benefit from having experienced, specialist staff who will work closely with them to help to break down any perceived barriers to learning. They work with children who are displaying challenging behaviour and also those who may be struggling with their mental health and well-being, which is impacting on their ability to make progress and thrive at school.
Facilities
Children who attend Cornerstone Academy return to their home schools equipped with a tool box which enables them to be more resilient. From an academic viewpoint they will move from small gains to accelerated progress, narrowing the gap between them and their peers and allowing them to access the curriculum with increased confidence. Access to the wider curriculum is further supported and consolidated by the embedding of reading as a master skill.We want every child to be able to access full-time education and maximise their potential, whatever that potential may be.
