Imagine being able to make a real difference in children’s lives, helping them grow, develop, and prepare for adulthood. Would you say no to joining a school that genuinely puts the child at the centre, with a therapeutic and holistic approach? Do you think a school like that doesn’t exist?

It does. This one does.

I am working with an incredible special school in Barnet, North London, that provides therapeutic education for children with Autism, ADHD, and Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. The Headteacher genuinely cares, not only about the children but also about staff wellbeing. The school also offers exceptional facilities and calm, nurturing spaces where pupils can truly thrive.
