Targeted Provision

We provide bespoke tuition and mentoring programmes to young people with Additional Educational Needs. Many of our cohort have EHCPs or are Looked After. Our in-house team of SEND Specialists, including a SENDCo, Designated Mental Health Lead, Exams Officer and Safeguarding Team, oversee all provision. We work closely with colleagues at Local Authority SEND and Inclusion teams, Virtual Schools, and schools to devise packages of support to help vulnerable young people meet their educational and social/ emotional outcomes. Our tutors are qualified, SEND and trauma-informed professionals. They prioritise building positive, trusting relationships with their young people to help them reach their potential. We offer targeted tuition in EAL, Life Skills, Metacognition and Functional Skills. We are a Functional Skills exam centre. We are a part time, interim provider. Our goal for all young people is that they are able to engage in suitable full time education with our support.
