Our specialist education services offer education, and support, to children and young people who might find main-stream education challenging.
We believe that all children and young people are best educated and trained within age appropriate peer groups where possible. It is likely that as a result of their mental health issues, they have experienced gaps and delays in their education, so we will provide them with expert support from dedicated teachers to recover and get over these interruptions.
