Our friendly team are on hand to answer any questions you may have so don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
No two days are the same at Pioneer – we believe that variety is most definitely the spice of life and we want our students to experience something different each and every day, no matter how small. We believe this keeps young people engaged and attentive to what’s happening around them.
As mentioned within our TEC Life section, the structure of a day at Pioneer is consistent – but the activities each student will undertake isn’t.
We have a daily routine and we want our students to contribute. It will be structured and be something like this:
09:15-09:30 My Communication
Your first session will start 09:30 – 10:15 this will be a classroom or workshop session
10:15-11:00 your second classroom or workshop session
11:00-11:15 this is your break, time to chill out
11:15-12:00 your third session either in the workshop or classroom
12:00-12:45 Lunch
12:45-13:15 fourth classroom/creative/workshop lesson
13:15-15:15 My Play & Leisure, My Physical Wellbeing activities
Days finish at 15:15 (unless we do an exciting off-site visit)
Off-site activities
If you are engaging positively at PioneerTEC there will be opportunities to take part in exciting visits to our Narrow Boat, the JetSki Lake, Trials Riding, Mountain Biking, Mountain Walking, Paddlesports on sea, canal, lakes and rivers and more!
What to wear
For our activities we’ll provide all the safety gear from helmets to buoyancy aids! For your classroom lessons you will need to dress in smart casual clothing. For workshop & creative sessions we’ll provide overalls. For some sessions safety boots are needed, we’ll size you up and get you your own pair as quickly as we can!
We want you to feel part of the school community, it is also important as part of our Independent Living Skills Programme, that you learn to take pride in yourself, your appearance and the clothing you wear.
