Our Approach

The 4 Cornerstones

Not fitting in at school or place of learning?

 

It may be that, a personalised education programme better meets your child’s needs.

 

This might be the decision, which results in improving your child’s attainment and progression.

 

Such arrangements need to be based on strategies to prevent similar problems re-occurring and spiralling.

The 4 Cornerstones

Understanding Your Whole Child

 

We always work with your child in context of family/carer and other stakeholders to promote accountability, consistency, continuity and improvement.

 

You will be fully involved in and informed of any decisions made.

We will maintain regular contact throughout.

 

Staff have in depth knowledge of local stakeholders and years experience of working successfully with families | carers.

Attention to Academic and Emotional Literacy

 

We address learning needs accordingly, by establishing a firm foundation in literacy and numeracy or English, math and science. Confident with the basics, our boundaried and safe environment accelerates students progress.

 

We provide a seamless therapeutic container to address arising issues.

Self-awareness, particularly the ability to understand their behaviour, is a major focus.

Environment - Small is Successful

 

We recognise the impact of peer influence and the stigma of ‘shame’ on a young persons learning and behaviour.

 

One of our first lessons is to teach students to, “ learn to fail gloriously”.

 

We are better able to meet your child’s academic, personal and social needs away from numerous distractions. This is a safer environment to learn ways of managing relationships, particularly with authority.

High Support | High Expectations

 

We believe the most demanding students deserve the most committed and qualified staff. At ELS, we deliver high quality teaching by qualified staff with experience of reengaging and enabling students.

 

We have high expectations of our students to begin to realize their full potential, regardless of background.
