Our independent schools across the UK provide a therapeutic framework that promotes academic success, emotional growth and personal development. Not all children respond to mainstream schools and require an alternative environment to prosper in. Through our independent schools, we’re able to provide young people with an environment pupils can work and learn in. Smaller classes mean young people at our schools receive a tailored, personal educational experience to help meet their individual learning needs. From schools offering a therapeutic-based learning environment to a safe place for young people to develop vocational skills and life assets, Five Rivers Education services supports young people and their personal development. Types of education with Five Rivers We offer a range of supportive, safe environments for children and young people for whom mainstream and other school settings have not worked. – Outreach School Services We have a specialist programme, 1 ACE, that offers access to therapeutic, holistic and Special Educational Needs provision. – Community Learning Environments Our OFSTED-registered and rated independent specialist schools around England offer a range of academic, vocational, SEN and disabilities (SEND) options. – In-house Learning Facilities In-house learning facilities are available to the young people in residence at one of Five Rivers children’s residential care homes. We tailor our education plans to meet the needs of each individual. The aim is always to achieve reintegration into the mainstream education system, from where children and young people can best interact with their peers on a journey towards becoming mature, independent citizens.
