OUR SEMH PROVISION
We work alongside schools to develop individualised Forest School programmes that meet young people at their level of need. Young people receive the necessary amount of adult support they need in order to find success, this could be working 1:1 with staff or working in a small group. We create a safe space for young people to learn and play together wherever possible, this creates opportunities for team work, compromise, shared experiences, problem solving and a sense of belonging. We believe in an organic, flexible approach to learning. Our woodland sessions are child centred and we promote positive risk taking alongside intrinsic motivation .
