Our Outcomes

We are ambitious for every child and young person at Aurora.

We encourage high expectations from and for all our young people. From the very first day they walk through our doors, we’re building foundations for their last day.

We see each person as an individual, who will move on to lead a fulfilling, independent life of their choosing. Whether that is further education, employment, training or supported living.

96% of our leavers go on to further education, training, and employment

100% of our Colleges are rated Good or above (compared to 79% nationally rated good or above)

100% of our children's homes are rated Good or above (compared to 81% nationally rated good or above)

100% of our Adult Services are rated Good or above

90% of inspected services are rated Good or Outstanding

Don’t just take our word for it, hear from inspiring young people, part of the Aurora family, about their outstanding achievements.
