Educate U

We offer full time education to children who are experiencing difficulties accessing their education. We will explore the causes of the difficulties and develop strategies from a trauma informed viewpoint to support the child.  Every child and young person have a wealth of potential and we are here to unlock it.  

 We believe that every child is important and deserves the best educational chances. Working together, we can achieve this and prepare our youngsters for a brighter future and to enjoy and love learning. 

 Educate U is also here to help students to develop their social skills and to be confident and respectful, both in their interactions with other people and as self-advocates. 

 We will support students to develop skills both in their learning and in their personal development. 

Appropriate and effective communication skills are key to enable people to manage in a wider community. It is important to put the joy back into learning to identify the positives in attending school.  

 We will work towards supporting young people who are struggling in an education environment and need support to change behaviours or perceptions of school. 

Admission process

Due to the vulnerable nature of our children, we will ensure we deliver information on an individual and small group basis, working with all our students to help them to understand the social, emotional and legal aspects that are associated.

Each young person will be considered on an individual basis.

  • Referred by education authorities, social workers, parents, foster agencies, schools
