Padworth Summer School is ran by the main-term Padworth College staff, meaning that our Summer School is led internally by staff who already know and love Padworth College. This provides an extra level of support and safety for students registered to Padworth Summer School.
Our qualified staff are a credit to Padworth. As well as their array of qualifications and experience in education, all of our staff are trained in Safeguarding and Child Protection procedures.
