Placement lengths can be adapted to meet the needs of the child and their families, 39, 44, 52-week placements are a range of opportunities provided.
Our multi-disciplinary team includes: psychology, psychotherapy, speech and language, and occupational therapy, working collaboratively to understand each child’s unique profile and needs including:
“The Head Teacher and her team have been exceptional in helping my child transition into education. They quickly identified both strengths and areas needing further support, conducting assessments to guide future planning. My child’s transition into school was well-managed, child-cantered, and highly supportive. This process included home visits from the Head Teacher, social stories at a level appropriate for my child, and taster session, all of which helped build a strong foundation of safety and trust, making the experience of moving school much smoother for my child.”

"The staff team supporting my young person have gone above and beyond to ensure his safety and to assist him with developing his independence skills. The young person has been through extremely difficult situations during his time supported by the team and this has included mental health crises, exploitation concerns, substance misuse and risky relationships."
