CAP Student Voice: your experience matters

At Coventry Alternative Provision (CAP), we know that education isn’t one-size-fits-all. Every student has a story, a journey, and a voice that deserves to be heard. That’s why Student Voice is at the heart of everything we do.

Whether you’ve taken part in outdoor learning, joined a therapeutic programme, or found your confidence in a new setting—your experience helps shape the future of CAP.


What Is Student Voice?

Student Voice means you get to share your thoughts, ideas, and feedback about your learning experience. It’s about making sure your opinions are listened to—and acted on.

CAP uses student voice to:

  • Improve the quality of alternative provision
  • Create new programmes that reflect real student needs
  • Make sure every learning space is welcoming, inclusive, and empowering

Real stories, real impact

Here’s what some students have said about their time with CAP:

“I used to feel like I didn’t fit in anywhere. CAP helped me find a place where I could be myself and still learn.”
– Year 10 Student

“The outdoor learning gave me space to think. I didn’t realise how much I needed that until I had it.”
– Year 11 Student

“I felt heard for the first time. My ideas actually mattered.”
– Post-16 Learner

These voices aren’t just inspiring—they’re helping CAP grow and evolve.


How can you get involved?

There are lots of ways to share your voice:

  • Fill out a feedback form after your placement
  • Join a student focus group or CAP forum
  • Create a video, blog, or artwork about your experience
  • Talk to your CAP MO or school lead about what’s working—and what could be better

Whether you want to speak up, write it down, or show it through creativity—your voice counts.


Why it matters

When you share your experience, you’re helping:

  • Future students feel more supported
  • CAP staff understand what works best
  • Schools make better decisions for learners like you

You’re not just part of the system—you’re helping shape it.


Your journey, your voice

CAP is here to help you find your path. And your voice helps make that path clearer for others too.

So speak up. Share your story. Help us build a better future—together.
