What we offer - commissioned

We aim to build capacity and promote inclusion in schools, colleges and other educational settings. This means we seek to support settings when situations are in the early stages of becoming ‘stuck’ and new ideas are needed, but before crisis.

We work in a variety of creative ways as part of a graduated response to support the development, learning, and wellbeing of children and young people. As Educational Psychologists, we work at a range of different levels to maximise our impact.

To find out more about the range of preventative and creative services that we are able to offer, and to purchase our Service Level Agreement (SLA), please visit our Traded Services website.
