Support services provided
Wilds Lodge's diverse dynamic creative therapies team put their young people at the heart of what they do. Creative therapies can be really helpful as they offer different and unique ways of expressing feelings and emotions that can be hard for young people to understand or explain.
The school is able to offer in-school support in a number of areas: psychotherapists, pastoral team members, dyslexia specialist, literacy intervention, school nurse, clinical psychologist and an educational psychologist. Students may also access occupational therapy and speech & language therapy.
Aims and philosophy
Young people often arrive with a history of poor school attendance. This dramatically improves as soon as the child arrives.
School staff focus heavily on ensuring that children feel settled and safe. This promotes their learning from an early stage.
Children quickly start to develop socially, emotionally and educationally. The whole-school therapeutic approach enables young people to thrive and to regulate their emotions enabling them to socialise well and to stay in lessons. Because children become better able to manage their emotional responses, they are able to focus on learning and achieve greatly improved educational outcomes.
