The Valiant School is a unique educational setting in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent.  We will offer a different type of school that provides opportunities for young people with social, emotional and mental health needs.  We believe that many of these children have tremendous latent potential that an innovative school will nurture and release for the benefit of the wider society.  We will offer early and sustained intervention to ensure that in the first instance they are not permanently excluded from school or, where they have already been excluded, to ensure their return to full time appropriate provision is rapid and sustained.
