We take a personalised approach to education

As Kingsbrook School we offer a tailored, therapeutic curriculum designed to meet the individual learning needs of our young people. We combine academic learning with practical skills, emotional support and personal development—helping every pupil grow in confidence and discover their strengths.

We support young people to learn in a range of environments, which brings education to life and means that they can apply their learning outside of the classroom. We are a registered small holding and have a forest school and horticulture area, and all pupils are able to take up responsibilities within the school including caring for animals. Ā This provides them with a sense of purpose, wellbeing and contributes towards the overall community feel to the school.

Our therapy and support services

We are a therapeutic school which means that therapeutic approaches are integrated into the day to day teaching and support we deliver. Therapy is at the centre of our approach to learning: it underpins pupil’s education and gives them valuable tools they can draw on for life.

Our young people often have complex needs including social, emotional and mental health difficulties (SEMH), trauma and attachment disorders. Our therapy team develop a strong understanding of each young person and their specific needs, putting together a tailored plan of support.
