Purple Ruler
At Purple Ruler, our Alternative Provision (AP) programme provides a structured, flexible, and technology-driven solution for student reintegration and off-site learning. We offer flexible, tailored education programs designed to support students’ academic progress while gradually reintegrating them into classroom learning. Our services work seamlessly with schools' existing support systems, offering bespoke study plans aligned with your curriculum and scheduling needs. Lessons are delivered by qualified, experienced teachers who build strong student connections to drive academic success.
Our AP service is built around customised courses aligned with each school’s curriculum, with a focus on high attendance, student engagement, and measurable academic progress. We support schools with real-time attendance tracking, detailed feedback for parents, and daily performance reports. We also incentivise attendance through reward programmes, offering a cost-effective solution.
We offer a unique Alternative Provision (AP) programme that stands out for several key reasons:
- Comprehensive Reintegration Process: Our three-phase reintegration plan—starting with initiation, moving through immersion, and ending with full reintegration—is designed to smoothly transition students back to mainstream schooling, focusing not only on their academic growth but also on their social reintegration.
- Tailored Courses and Adaptability: We customise our courses to align with each school’s exam boards and specific curriculum. Our flexibility allows schools to adjust lesson times, swap facilitators, or add or remove students as needed, making it easy to adapt to changing requirements.
- Incentive Programme for Attendance: We believe in motivating students, which is why we offer attendance incentives like Amazon vouchers for high attendance rates and engagement. It’s a great way to keep students engaged and invested in their learning journey.
- Real-Time Reporting and Parent Engagement: We keep parents in the loop with daily attendance updates and detailed lesson feedback, creating a strong partnership with families to support student progress and well-being.
- State-of-the-Art Technology: Our online platform provides an interactive, engaging experience with real-time data dashboards, collaborative tools, and monitored communication channels that enhance learning.
- Rigorous Teacher Selection and Quality Assurance: We’ve developed a stringent recruitment and quality assurance process for our teachers, who undergo continuous feedback, training, and evaluation based on a performance rubric linked to bonuses. This ensures we’re always providing top-quality teaching.
