The Sallygate School had their Ofsted Inspection just before Christmas and we now have the final report.

We are pleased to announce that we have been judged ‘Outstanding’ for behaviour and well being with ‘Good’ judgments in all other areas.

Its been 4 years since the last inspection and we would like to thank all of the school team for their fantastic ongoing hard work and commitment throughout this period.

Well done to everyone at Channels and Choices Therapeutic Community.

In November, Channels and Choices organised a Firework Display for all of the young people and adults.

We had a brilliant turnout of 200 people and was a great start to our community events.

There was popcorn, hot dogs, burgers, chips and also a Hog Roast. This was held at Deal Town FC who said that it was one of the best events that they have held there.

The fireworks were provided by AJ Pyrotechnics which received outstanding feedback.

A massive thank you to all that attended and we look forward to next year!

On Friday 10th November 2017 we held our annual Communities of Communities Day where other providers visit us to complete a Peer Review of the therapeutic service we are providing.

‘The Community of Communities (C of C) is a quality improvement and accreditation programme for Therapeutic Communities (TCs) in the UK and overseas. Our work supports members to meet the highest standards of TC practice through a process of self- and peer-review.’

The whole community was involved in the preparation of the day as well as partaking.

We are pleased to announce that we received Outstanding feedback and we are proud to be a part of the programme.

A massive well done to everyone that was involved whether big or small!
