Kaleidos Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is a powerful whole-school content management and delivery module for both teachers and students with tools for planning and delivering lessons and recording the attainment of individual learners.
The Kaleidos Learning Platform helps to empower and engage students by bringing everything they need in to one place: they can browse their courses; search for resources; receive personalised activities and return assignments; communicate directly with their teachers; and check their own progress using the detailed markbook.

The college provides a range of support services for students, all of which aim to put the student first and ensure their welfare. These include:-
The purpose of the Students First Co-ordinator is to assist in co-ordinating internal and external student support services in order that students have access to information and are meaningfully involved in decision-making at all levels; and to assist in ensuring that the college meets the needs of all vulnerable students, within curricular and non-curricular aspects of college life by consulting and providing advice and support to students and their parents, staff and other agencies.
Students First services have a corporate identity that helps students (and staff) see them as a cohesive network of support, rather than disparate, disjointed services. It also facilitates a more co-ordinated approach by the staff involved in the different areas of support, improving communication, ensuring consistency and reducing duplication of work.
Students are actively involved in decision-making, including decisions about their own learning. They also participate in staffing appointments (see Guidance on Student Involvement in Recruitment). The Healthy School Steering Group includes student members.
