A registered charity, the school is recognised and funded as a centre of excellence by the Department for Education under the Music and Dance Scheme, and is one of only nine residential schools nationally within the scheme. The school also receives financial support through the Education Funding Agency’s Dance and Drama Award Scheme for some of its post-16 students.
When Pioneer Lodge learned that Derbyshire Scouts needed a new activity and accommodation centre at the county camp site, Drum Hill, members wanted to support the venture. Not only had some of them been volunteers at the site over the years, and some had actually helped build the previous centre, Birch Hall, but Pioneer Lodge itself has had a long attachment to Drum Hill.
Educational charity, Beanstalk, have been awarded a grant of £31,000 to help support children with reading difficulties across Greater Manchester and Sefton. This grant will support nearly 100 children with reading difficulties, offering them the one-to-one literacy support they need to succeed in school.
The money will be used to pay for some much-needed equipment in the form of scout tarps and walkie-talkies.
