Engage Academy is a school in Kirklees for primary aged children in Key Stage 1 and 2 (age 5-11) who are at risk of permanent exclusion, or who are permanently excluded from mainstream school. A high percentage of our children have Social, Emotional, Mental Health  (SEMH) needs along with undiagnosed complex needs. All pupils undergo an assessment with us and the majority of our pupils receive an Educational Health and Care Plan (EHCP) prior to going to their next school ensuring their needs are met in the future.

At Engage Academy we offer a nurturing, safe, inclusive and friendly environment where the building of trusting relationships is paramount. We have extremely high expectations and achieve good academic progress across the curriculum with an emphasis placed on improving pupils’ reading, writing and maths skills through personalised and creative learning opportunities.

We have a creative curriculum that enables all pupils, regardless of need, to achieve their potential and thrive in their new schools. This curriculum aims to practically support pupils in a range of ways; offering support for well-being and an acknowledgement of their skills and talents in the wider curriculum. Pupils previously disengaged from learning re-engage with newfound enthusiasm and zest for learning.
