Our Multi Academy Trust is a group of inspirational and aspirational mainstream and specialist schools in Hull whose main objective is to ensure that all pupils make exceptional progress.

The Sullivan Centre, is a short term educational provision which supports young people within Hull and out of county areas who are unable to access their present school due to a diverse range of medical and mental health needs.

The service encompasses:

• The Sullivan Centre, classroom based tuition (co located at Venn Boulevard Centre);

• Hospital Schoolroom (located at Hull Royal Infirmary);

• Home Tuition Service providing an Outreach education and support service to pupils and schools.

• Inpatient Schoolroom (located at Inspire, the region’s new CAMHS (Children’s & Adolescent Mental Health service) inpatient facility)

Our overarching aim is for each pupil to improve all aspects of their learning, emotional wellbeing, social development and employability, so that they can either return to mainstream school or be supported in accessing the most effective setting to enhance and improve their chances and opportunities in the future.

Through a personalised curriculum pupils are challenged and inspired to achieve, despite the challenges which they may face. A combined curriculum of academic skills and creative learning opportunities, ensures that each pupil advances in their educational and personal development journeys’.
