Future Schooling in Knowsley
Knowsley is on an ambitious journey to create a world class
education system with 21st century learning environments at the
heart of local communities. This journey is now proceeding at
a rapid pace.
It is our vision to transform Knowsley's education system and
create a service which better meets the needs of children, young
people and their families, and will contribute to the wider
delivery of children's and neighbourhood services.
This will be achieved by providing facilities equipped with the
latest technology, transforming teaching and learning for both
students and teachers. Students will be encouraged to stay at
school longer and create a new sense of purpose which will benefit
the whole community.
Knowsley's £150m Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme
has seen the creation of seven new centres for learning,
replacing eleven secondary schools. Our centres for learning
have delivered first class learning environments for secondary
students as well as providing a valuable resource for the local
community.
Knowsley's primary and special sectors will also receive
significant investment. Work has begun to
create new primary schools and a new state of the art special
school in the borough.
Our new sixth form college offers students the opportunity to
access the best teaching professionals and facilities across three
campuses. The campuses together offer a wide ranging
curriculum that includes A-levels, Diplomas, BTECs and GCSEs.
Community facilities are open well into the evening on week days and weekends, giving you the opportunity to hire facilities for a range of activities or take part in a wide selection of evening/weekend classes.
