Home Educated Children and Young People with SEND

Our sessions for children and young people with SEND who are educated outside the classroom, are the perfect opportunity for children to spend time together (with parents/carers) in a safe and secure environment, including siblings who may not have additional needs. We have lots of space to explore, with a large outdoor play area and indoor space including a soft play area. It is a chance for both children and parents to socialise and to meet other people. The sessions have been split into two age groups, children aged 12 and under and young people aged 13 and over.
