Our clinicians are a crucial part of the most joined-up model in SEND. Across all our specialist schools and children’s homes, we provide unrivaled levels of clinical support, both in terms of expertise and breadth of provision. Our young people present with complex needs including developmental trauma, neuro-developmental conditions, and special educational needs.

Our Senior Psychologists work collaboratively within our schools and children’s homes, ensuring that therapeutic support permeates every aspect of the education, care, and support we offer. You will provide consultation, workshops, training, and guidance to the educational and residential teams around our children.
