NSPCC What is Child Abuse?

Child abuse is when a child is intentionally harmed by an adult or another child – it can be over a period of time but can also be a one-off action. It can be physical, sexual or emotional and it can happen in person or online. It can also be a lack of love, care and attention – this is neglect.

Welcome to Branthwaite Academy – formerly known as Cumbria Academy for Autism.

Together with pupils, parents, staff, and community representatives, we have chosen a new name that we hope truly reflects our purpose, vision, and mission.

Branthwaite Academy continues to uphold key values such as inclusivity, innovation, honesty, high expectations, purpose, and potential.

The new brand aligns closely with our purpose: to transform the lives of autistic children, young people, and their families, and reflects our commitment to fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment for all students.
