Harmeny Education Trust is a charitable organisation providing therapeutic care and education to children who have experienced early years trauma through abuse, neglect and family disruption, referred from all over Scotland. We currently work with children and young people aged 5-18, both on a day and all-year-round residential basis.
Our core service, Harmeny School, comprises:
1. An education service, which includes an outdoor learning team.
2. A care service, with five residential cottages and one day service cottage. The service also includes a therapies manager coordinating evidence informed approaches for a variety of our staff.
3. Support services, made up of finance, estates, catering and domestic services, fundraising, IT, HR, learning and development, and admin teams.
Harmeny is committed to achieving the highest possible standards of care and education and to continuously improving our work. We have recently developed a practice framework, The Harmeny Way, which describes the unique combination of therapeutic approaches used to guide our work and ensure consistent practice with children and young people placed with us.
