Long term
Start date: November 2025

Iâ??m delighted to be supporting a small, specialist education provision in the Central London area that works with both primary and secondary learners who have faced challenges in mainstream education.

This setting offers a nurturing, inclusive environment where every young person is encouraged to rediscover a love for learning and build the confidence and skills needed to succeed beyond the classroom.

The school takes a holistic, person-centred approach, considering each learnerâ??s educational background, social and emotional wellbeing, and individual needs.

Staff work closely with families and professionals to create a caring, consistent environment where every child feels seen, supported, and valued.


â??Pupils enjoy coming to school. Staff work closely with pupils to understand their needs and the barriers to learning they may have experienced elsewhere. Pupils say they know the staff care about them and their wellbeing.â?
