What you commission

Provision you can defend in any review.

A complete, compliant curriculum

Nine GCSE and IGCSE subjects taught in full, not worksheets that assume teaching is happening somewhere else. Suitable as the academic core of a commissioned package.

Evidence reviews

Mastery-gated progress data for every student: what was studied, when, how long it took, and what was demonstrably learned. Exportable for annual reviews, panels and Ofsted conversations.

Built for this cohort

Designed by a former AP leader for students with disrupted schooling: low floor, high ceiling, no assumed prior knowledge, and a Foundation lane that rebuilds confidence before it rebuilds content.

Oversight without chasing

A dashboard for commissioners and caseworkers: engagement and progress visible per student, evidencing suitability of provision without weekly phone calls.

Alternative Provision

Curriculum cover for the students you can’t staff.

Specialist teachers are the hardest line in any AP budget. Latitude delivers the taught curriculum, and your staff do what only they can do: relationships, supervision, and getting students through the door.

Use it as the academic spine for 14–16 placements, re-engagement programmes, or students on part-time timetables building back to full provision.

AP licence

Per-student, per-year. Includes every subject, both lanes, life skills courses, staff oversight dashboard and onboarding support.

£800–1,200 / student / year
Local Authorities

Suitable education, evidenced, for the children without a school place.

For unplaced children, those awaiting placement, and EHE families your teams are in contact with, Latitude offers structured full-curriculum provision at a fraction of complex-case costs, with the engagement evidence your statutory duties require.

EHCP & SEND: where an EHCP is delivered otherwise than at school under section 61 of the Children and Families Act 2014, Latitude can form the taught element of that provision, with progress reporting aligned to annual review.

LA licence

Volume pricing for cohorts. Caseworker dashboard, per-student progress evidence, and pilot programmes sized below procurement thresholds.

£400–600 / student / year
