Description
Smallbrook School is Independent Secondary school in Not applicable for kids aged 7 to 19 (Gender - 7 to 19 )
Smallbrook School is a specialist school provision set in the heart of the Shropshire countryside. They welcome children with behavioural, emotional, social, learning needs, or a combination of them to reengage in their education with them. They think of the school as a family and what better way for a young person to be able to learn in a safe and nurturing environment with small class sizes and often one to one support.Each child is treated as an individual and we work with them, their families and carers to ensure they develop a learning and support plan that is tailored to their specific needs. The young people are therefore well poised to achieve the best outcomes through this ‘person centred’ approach.

Curriculum
Smallbrook School provides day school placements for girls and boys aged between 7 and 19 who have been identified to have social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) as a primary need; and will consider students with complex needs.All students at the school have an education, health and care plan (EHCP) and are placed from local authorities all over the UK who have young people living within a reasonable distance from the school.The majority of our students have, for many different reasons, had a negative experience of education due to their needs not being fully met or even understood. The school has an extensive successful track record of reengaging students where others have failed. Each student has a high level of support with groups of up to three. All staff are regularly planning and reviewing how to meet the individual needs of our students, and this is coordinated through the curriculum leaders and pastoral team.

Things to note
Clinical therapy
As well as delivering the best possible education, we also have a clinical team who provide care and therapy to benefit the children and young people in our school. The team work with each student, as well as their parents or carers, to agree a support plan which will become part of their school life, enabling them to build on their strengths and increase their resilience. They aim to provide our students with a safe, caring and nurturing community with clear, consistent boundaries and high expectations. Relationships are at the heart of our approach and are based on sensitive understanding of a young person’s experiences and the areas in which they require more support.
