The overarching aim of the SEMH Intervention Hub is to support pupils to remain in mainstream education. To this end we can accept a limited number of pupils in our specialist classes for short term intervention placements.

As well as following the national curriculum, we focus on strategies which support self-regulation, the development of social skills and building self-esteem and resilience through 1:1 and small group activities. All intervention pupils have the opportunity to experience outdoor learning sessions as  well as accessing drama and bespoke football or rugby sessions.

Our whole school aim is to enable all our pupils to become:

Confident

Resilient

Emotionally literate

Ambitious learners

Tolerant of others

Effective communicators;

who are prepared for adulthood in modern Britain.

SEMH Hub class 1 is for pupils aged 5 - 7 who are finding mainstream school difficult or who have gone to another nurture hub in the past. We also accept pupils on placement while their needs are assessed.  This programme can be up to 12 months and pupils are dual registered with their mainstream school. 

SEMH Hub Class 2 is for pupils aged 7 - 11 who are undergoing our 12 week intervention programme to help develop their social and emotional skills to help them to cope and succeed within their mainstream school settings. 

In the mornings, pupils follow the National Curriculum at their level. Afternoons are dedicated for SEMH sessions. In these, we focus on talking about our feelings, friends, behaviour and ways to manage challenges inside and outside of school. All children have access to Emotional Literacy Support Assisstants and a high ratio of staff.
