WHY CHOOSE STEPHENSON STUDIO SCHOOL?
Studio Schools are a new type of state school for 14-19 year olds. As a Studio School we are pioneering in our approach to education - focusing on narrowing the gap between the skills young people need to succeed in their careers, and what is taught by the current education system. Stephenson Studio School is proud to be part of a growing family of over 40 Studio School across the country.
Here at Stephenson Studio School we offer traditional academic qualifications such as GCSEs alongside vocational qualifications and work experience placements with local employers. Our school day models the working day followed by many local businesses with learners in school from 8:30 am until 3:00 pm.
This holistic approach we follow at Stephenson Studio School to a young person’s development means they leave the school as well-rounded individuals; ready for a smooth transition into their future careers or university study.
