DT11 0BD ** AWARDED CODE OF PRACTICE **
We are a facility where we focus on learning, not teaching. Children who cannot access mainstream education due to trauma, anxiety and lack of social skills are able to access an alternative form of education with 1:1 support.
We believe that there is another alternative to conventional education, to help young people learn by connecting with the outdoors in a therapeutic environment and by having hands-on, skills focused classes and offering Equine Assisted Learning. We encourage participants to express themselves through art and other mediums. Through practical based activities and animals we help young people build trust, self esteem, self confidence and resilience.
We are currently awaiting our first inspection by Ofsted as an Independent School.
