Description

Red Balloon Reading is an inviting and nurturing educational setting that caters for students from across the local and neighbouring boroughs. They provide full-time or part-time therapeutic and educational support for up to 24 young people who are aged between 11-16.

Facilities

The staff bring a wide range of skills to the community. They offer art and music therapy on site and equine therapy at a local equestrian centre. The academic curriculum is built around what individual students are interested in. Students have a personalised, negotiated timetable, sometimes working one-to-one and other times as part of a group.
The Centre focuses on the wellbeing and emotional development of students, placing them at the heart of all that they do. They understand that families have often endured a difficult journey before their child reaches, and so they work to ensure an inclusive and supportive environment. This may be through Outreach Programme or in-Centre support offered to all students.

Features

Things to note

All students have either music or art therapy to support their emotional wellbeing and may also be able to participate in equine therapy. The Centre negotiates a curriculum with our students that covers core subjects in the National Curriculum as well as the humanities, art, PE, PSHE and Food Technology. Students can also take part in a whole host of enrichment opportunities through partner organisations, including mechanics, outdoor learning, and animal husbandry. Students are encouraged to plan and lead trips, and they have visited museums, galleries, zoos, and other cultural locations, as well as participating in a variety of sporting and adventure activities. The community also feels it is important to give back and so throughout the year staff and students take part in various fundraising activities.
