Our specialist schools, learning centres and children’s homes offer truly inspirational environments and life changing opportunities to our children and young people.

This foundation nurtures the growth and development of our children and young people.
Our endless support, advice and expertise also extends to parents, carers and professionals to help them find hope, direction and understanding for the best way forward for their child and their family.
We celebrate every single small success which combine to create many huge small victories.
Achieving the small steps that make up the bigger picture of the child is the most rewarding part of the job.

To do this we constantly have to reflect, refine and refresh our approaches and environments to ensure they never stop improving and being the best they possibly can be.
It is the same for our staff, we never want to become complacent as an employer and are driven to always make sure we are constantly improving how we both support and reward every member of our team.
