Fernbrook College is committed to empowering young people. We work hard to enable our students to make better choices to support their education and life chances. We provide the opportunity to reset, rebuild and restart a young person’s journey in their education. We aim to provide them with the skills to be prepared for the challenges they will face and move on to successful destinations.

Riverside College incorporates three provisions: Riverside (main site), Marlborough House - AUS (Adolescent Unit School), a Tier 4 CAMHS provision, and the Hospital and Education, Tuition and Outreach Service. This creates collaborative working across the different EOTAS provisions, in order to share good practice and staffing expertise, whilst still meeting the individual needs of the young people. All the centres work with schools across Swindon, and beyond, to support pupils who have struggled accessing mainstream education. We have a proud history of supporting pupils in reigniting their passion for education and taking the next steps to an exciting future.

We provide individualised packages of full time learning comprised of a range of onsite and offsite provision for KS4 students whose needs require a more bespoke form of education.
