Welcome to our Specialist College
We work with young adults aged 16-25 years across a broad spectrum of social, emotional and mental health challenges and use our knowledge, experience and expertise to help them ‘become the best they can be’.
Welcome from the Head of Further Education
I am pleased to introduce The William Henry Smith Specialist College and share our unique way of working, which enables young people to achieve their goals and live fulfilling lives of their own choosing.
Our multidisciplinary, bespoke approach, places our young people at the centre of everything we do. Our highly skilled and specialist teaching, support and therapeutic team, work with each young person to ensure their needs are fully met and that every achievement takes them closer to reaching their individual goals.
We prepare our young people for adult life, through person-centred academic and vocational study programmes, leading to them becoming more independent and improving their quality of life. By working together, we increase resilience, confidence, self-esteem, emotional intelligence and well-being: the cornerstones on which strong and successful long-term futures are built.
We welcome visitors throughout the year and look forward to hearing from you.
Warm regards,
Leanne Clarke
Head of Further Education
