Roots 4 Learning

Who we help

Young people that are experiencing barriers to attending their mainstream education provision.These can be complex and for a variety of reasons, some of which may include:

SEND diagnosed or un-diagnosed.
Experiencing anxiety and other SEMH difficulties.
Experience of bullying.
Environmental issues in a mainstream setting.
Performance related anxiety.

We know that having barriers to attendance can have a huge impact on the whole family. Often students can be waiting a long time for assessments or accessing CAMHS. We want to offer support quickly for both our students and their families. We work closely with our mainstream partners and local authorities to support whatever outcome is best for the young person.

What we do

We aim to provide supplementary education alongside wellbeing activties to young people that are finding their mainstream school difficult to access. At present we do not offer full time placements but support the work of schools and Local Authorities to decide the best programme of support. In some cases this work may include reintegrating a young person back into their mainstream school, alternative provision or specialist setting.

We offer the core curriculum subjects (English, Maths and Biology) and a range of other subjects and activities that may inspire our students to reengage with their learning. Some of these include Performing Arts, Music Technology, Food Technology, PE, Boxing, Animal Care, Volunteering, PSHE, Careers.

On first meeting our students and their families we work hard to establish an understanding of needs and history, then together we design a personalised plan of support.
