Welcome to Taunton Deane Partnership College. We are a Pupil Referral Unit. A Local Authority school that serves the community of Taunton, Wellington and Wiveliscombe. When students are not able to have their needs met in a mainstream school, they come to TDPC. We then work with them, their families, schools and other professionals to support them into their next steps.
Our students range from 5 – 16 and next steps could be their mainstream school, another mainstream school, college, work or a special school. We provide a safe and welcoming environment where everyone is valued for who they are and what they can offer, and where every day is a new day. Our aim is to build resilience, confidence and other key skills that are needed for these next steps.

“Thank you to your team for the additional support you offer us with outreach, TEAM 4 and partnership. We simply can’t do our job without your advice and guidance.”
“At a very difficult time in our lives, TDPC has been a bit of an anchor for my daughter at such a crucial transition in her life, thank you.”
“TDPC consider all aspects of a child’s life not just education and, although it’s likely one would never aspire for a child to end up in a school exclusion programme, this was the best outcome in a very difficult situation.”
“They were always there for him, caring for him and would do what they could to be able to help and safeguard him. I feel this multi-agency work and giving him a chance has really made a difference…as his worker I am beyond grateful and feel TDPC deserve recognition of their hard work and their amazing communication.”
“Thanks for everything you've done to support us. She has settled really well at TDPC and is looking forward to her future, which a few months ago, she couldn't think about. We're really happy with the support and progress she's made.”
