Community & Charity Work
Our Community Work
Pudsey Cluster
Pudsey Cluster is a collaboration of support services who work with children, young people, families and other professionals. We provide families with a range of accessible support services and activities to meet their needs.
We recognise that every family is unique, so we provide the right support at the right time to allow change to happen.
We do this by:
- Listening to concerns and needs
- Identifying strengths to build on
- Supporting positive change
- Helping children and young people to reach their goals and achieve their potential
- Offering support and advice to organisations that work with families
The Pudsey Cluster covers a vast area from the Bramley border to Calverley and into Tyersal. We’re one of three secondary schools covered by the cluster, as well as fifteen primary schools and three Children’s Centres.
We offer a range of services from family support, parent support programmes, children and young peoples counselling, access to parental therapeutic support (parent space) and speech and language therapy.
For more information about the work of the cluster, or how we can help you or your child, please speak to the Pudsey Cluster Team.

West Specialist Inclusive Learning Centre
Co-op Academy Priesthorpe works in partnership with West SILC to offer specialist provision for learners with special educational needs. Partnership classes are comprised of both Priesthorpe and West SILC students and benefit from small class sizes, specialist teaching and bespoke pathways for accreditation and qualifications.
West SILC students are able to take advantage of the academy’s mainstream provision and specialist staff where appropriate. This highly inclusive model benefits students from both establishments socially and academically and the partnership is highly valued within the community.
Need further information or advice? Please get in touch.
