The Spires is a small, unique education provision, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted in 2019. Based in Wiltshire and offering a range of rich learning opportunities for pupils aged 6-18 years, The Spires is a happy, safe and welcoming environment, which allows our pupils to achieve their own academic targets whilst feeling safe, secure and boosting their self-esteem.
Every day is unique and individual to each child, taking account of their learning needs and interests. Our approach to learning is thematic, with a core theme each term, connecting the seven curriculum areas of Literacy, Numeracy, Science and Technology, The World Around Us, Creativity, Skills for Life alongside Physical Education and Wellbeing. Within the school day there is a focus on core learning of Literacy, Numeracy, Science and Technology. Which is supplemented with lessons that focus on Wellbeing and Vocational Studies. Within these curriculum areas students can focus on their own personal development.
The physical and active curriculum is enhanced by weekly sessions with Wiltshire Outdoor Learning. Here there is a strong emphasis on team building, developing leadership skills and facing personal challenge through activities that run from biking, canoeing abseiling, wild cooking, hiking, and paddleboarding. We offer swimming sessions once a week and have links with the local leisure centre where any pupils aged 14+ can be offered the opportunity to develop their own personal health through the use of the supervised gym.
