A culture of learning is well established amongst staff and young people and the centre will seek further to strengthen this ethos by continuing to motivate, encourage and promote the value of education in improving the life chances and opportunities for young people. Service delivery is regularly reviewed and additions to the curriculum will be made in response to the requirements of custody and community plans.
