LEARNING & GROWTH
Personalised, Therapeutic Education That Empowers Success
OUR AIMS
Our education programme is designed to enhance each young person's future by supporting them to re-engage with learning in a safe, meaningful, and empowering way. Guided by our THRIVE model and a trauma-informed approach, we meet children where they are—emotionally, socially, and academically—and support them to move forward with confidence.
​
​Many of the young people we care for have experienced significant disruptions to their education. Some have been out of school for long periods or have struggled to feel safe and supported in formal settings. To rebuild trust in learning, we provide 1:1 home-based education tailored to each young persons pace, needs, and interests.
Our personalised learning plans focus not only on academic progress, but also on developing essential life and employability skills—preparing young people for future education, training, or work. Through therapeutic teaching and the use of Decider Skills, we help young people build emotional regulation, self-belief, and resilience—skills that will serve them well far beyond the classroom. We celebrate every achievement—whether that’s completing a piece of work, gaining a qualification, or simply showing up and trying.
By working closely with the young peron's wider team and local education providers, we support successful transitions and create positive pathways forward. At its core, our education offer is about enhancing futures—empowering each young person to reconnect with their potential, take pride in their progress, and believe in the possibilities ahead.
EDUCATION
Our education provision is designed to support each young person in achieving meaningful, personal success—whatever that may look like for them. Guided by the THRIVE model and our therapeutic approach, we focus on the whole young person, recognising their strengths, needs, and learning journey.
​
Whether it’s reaching a long-held goal, achieving their first academic award, or simply believing in themselves enough to try something new—like climbing a mountain—we celebrate every step forward. Through consistent emotional support and the use of Decider Skills, we help young people develop the confidence, self-regulation, and resilience needed to overcome barriers, engage in learning, and thrive in both education and life.
BESPOKE SUPPORT
Our team of dedicated tutors supports each young person through one-to-one, therapeutic education, tailored to their strengths, challenges, and aspirations. Using the THRIVE model as a foundation, we carry out a thoughtful and trauma-informed initial assessment to identify each young person’s starting point—academically, emotionally, and developmentally.
This assessment helps us create a bespoke programme of learning and skills acquisition, focused on building functional skills, emotional resilience, and preparing for a successful future. By integrating Decider Skills into the curriculum, young people gain practical tools to manage emotions, stay calm under pressure, and make positive choices in their learning journey and daily life.
We are proud to be accredited by ASDAN and, AQA, which allows us to offer flexible, meaningful qualifications aligned with each young person's learning style, interests, and future goals. For many, this includes opportunities to take part in work experience with local businesses, helping them explore real-world career paths and develop vital employability skills.
Our education team brings together a wide range of expertise, including a registered Educational Psychologist, qualified teachers, a Specialist Teacher for Social, Emotional, and Mental Health, a Youth Offending Support Worker, and Outdoor Activity Instructors. Together, they ensure each young person is nurtured, challenged, and supported to build confidence, achieve success, and shape a brighter future.
