OUR HISTORY

We were founded by our proprietor Beverley-Sarah White who wanted to set up a genuine 'Nordic' inspired progressive education environment where the holistic mental health support was totally integrated into learning and daily life. Where the development of the whole child was a priority and where they had much greater say in both their therapeutic and educational journey. She wanted a place where parents felt part of the process - a family, rather than a school. The core journey was always about ....

1) Helping the young person to get well

2) Helping the young person and family to build resilience and 'Sisu'

3) Intensive educational support but in a progressive manner, allowing for students to fall in love with their learning again

4) Providing on-going services and support for those that wanted to keep in contact or look us up at a later date - at no extra cost to the LEA (A family doesn't look the other way in your time of need, even if you've been away for a while!)

So far we have achieved this for over 40 young people, plus through consultancy touched the lives of many others. We have been a setting for 7 fantastic years!
