Important Notice: Policy Updates in Progress

We are currently updating our policies to align with the vision and ethos of BCAP. During this transition period, you may encounter some policies that still feature our historic branding. Rest assured, these will be reviewed and updated in line with our planned review dates and uploaded accordingly.

For reference, the following naming conventions should be taken in to account when reading a policy that has not yet been reviewed since the Academy conversions:

BCAP (Black Country Alternative Provision) = Lawnswood Campus
Kairos (KS3) = The Braybrook Centre
Kairos (KS4) = The Midpoint Centre
Vireo = The Orchard Centre / Nightingale

Our commitment remains unwavering: our policies and procedures will always be child-centred, sensitive, and adaptive to individual needs, and built around authentic relationships.
