Welcome to Holistic Childcare and Education Schools and Residential Services.
We believe every child is an individual and that every child is deserving of the opportunity to thrive in an environment that is respectful of their needs and their challenges.
Established in 1996, Holistic Childcare and Education provides a specialist service that offers both residential childcare and education or education only day placements.
Our ethos is nurture based and we support the children in our care to be successful learners, confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens. We actively encourage innovation and we provide an empowering environment enabling both staff and children to ‘believe in themselves’.
We believe that the development of new skills and talents provides a resilient foundation enabling our young people to reach their full potential. Our aim is to provide a safe, caring and nurturing environment, offering support, understanding and guidance through 24 hour / 365 days learning opportunities.
Our Vision
That every child and young person should be given the opportunity to access a relevant and personalised education pathway, which enables them to reach their potential and aspirations and gain the skills and confidence to embrace the world in which we live.
Our Values
We believe in education as a driver for personal development and social improvement. We value effective teaching, commitment to learning and sharing of good practice. We are committed to inclusivity, honesty, compassion and respect for others in everything we do.
Our Aims
To meet the full range of needs that individual learners may have in an inclusive and therapeutic environment. This is essential to meet their social, emotional and health needs, in addition to learning needs. In order to achieve this, our inclusive approach to learning integrates the skills of both teaching staff and care staff, together with a wider team of partners from the community.
