Preparation
School
We support partner schools and local authorities in securing accredited vocational qualifications for learners across Wales. The Military Preparation School (MPS) focuses on two main objectives: qualification attainment and developing the skill set required for positive progression to further education, apprenticeships and employment.
The MPS provision provides a curriculum for life through preparation for lifelong learning. We have a professional and engaging curriculum that welcomes a diverse range of learner who is able to access and succeed through our expansive curriculum options.
The learners who attend the MPS receive a unique learning experience. Achieving qualification attainment and developing vital employment and work-based skills are the fundamental objectives for all MPS learners. The active and holistic approach to learning inspires, motivates and educates all learners to reach their potential.
We are not a boot camp, nor do we push learners towards a military career, we are focused on level 2 accredited qualifications and equipping learners with the foundations to achieve and thrive in a changing world.
The MPS actively supports and complements all local school curricula. The MPS has an outstanding proven track record in supporting and providing schools with a professional and experienced approach to educational excellence. Whether providing outstanding outcomes for schools through learner attainment or positively impacting a learner’s approach to education, we strive for excellence in every aspect. We have established successful and long lasting partnerships with a range of schools from maintained, independent and specialist sectors. Due to our support structure and diverse curriculum, all schools are able to benefit from our experience and proven record, regardless of school performance indicators.
The course duration follows the academic year and learners can attend the MPS up to 3 days a week; most learners attend centres for 1 day a week, which allows the learner to access their home-school curriculum with little or no disruption to school timetables. Learners can join at any point throughout the year and are still able to attain qualifications.
