Dear Parents and carers,

Mr Bayliss has been part of the Bridge for over 20 years, serving as Headteacher for the last 12. Leading a Pupil Referral Unit requires a unique level of dedication and Mr Bayliss has been a tireless advocate for all our students over the years offering them a fresh start in education while supporting all their social, emotional, and mental health needs, so they can experience a happy and well balance school life.
