Helpful Information
Students can be referred to us for a maximum of 3 days a week. Schools can pre-book one of our 10 spaces on a half termly, termly or full academic year basis. We also take referrals for short term support should a student need some time to pause, reflect and have a fresh start in school. This may be for a day where a suspension at home isn’t appropriate or the referral itself is put in place to avoid a suspension.
​

-
Breakfast/lunch
