Specialist Support for Young Learners with SEND
Our team members are made up of highly trained staff with extensive experience in supporting young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) within an ‘Alternative Provision’ setting.
Alongside their educational expertise, our team members bring a genuine passion for the animals they care for and work alongside every day. With a deep understanding of animal behaviour and welfare, our team uses positive human-animal relationships to support engagement, emotional regulation and confidence, helping young learners to connect, develop and thrive.
This expertise allows us to identify individual needs early and provide targeted, meaningful support.
Skills, Guidance and Real World Learning
Our staff go beyond, far beyond classroom teaching. By using the farm and outdoor environment, they help learners:
- Develop practical and vocational skills linked to real working life
- Build resilience, teamwork and independence
- Improve communication and social skills in a safe, supportive setting
- Gain confidence through hands‑on, meaningful experiences
- Understand routines, responsibilities and expectations of the workplace
These experiences support personal growth while preparing learners for further education, training or employment.
