Summary

The Buckinghamshire Primary Pupil Referral Unit (PRU), located in Aylesbury, serves children facing significant social, emotional, or behavioural difficulties that hinder their success in mainstream primary schools. Established in September 2011 through the amalgamation of three units, the PRU provides tailored support either through outreach services or by offering placements within its facilities.

With a current enrolment of five pupils and a capacity of 36, the unit prioritises inclusivity, with all students eligible for free school meals. The PRU's ethos centres on perseverance, respect, and understanding, aiming to foster a supportive environment conducive to personal and academic growth. Recent data indicates a positive impact, with no pupils receiving fixed-term suspensions or permanent exclusions after full-time placements in the 2023/24 academic year.

The Buckinghamshire PRU collaborates with all maintained primary schools in the county, ensuring that children receive the necessary support to reintegrate successfully into mainstream education. The unit is committed to continuous improvement and community engagement, focusing on the well-being and development of its pupils.
