Childhood First - healing hurt minds

"Traumatised children and young people need a therapeutic education - an education which considers and addresses emotional and cognitive development together, and in stages tailor-made to the needs of the whole child."

Education

Children have access to the Pupil Referral Unit run by Norfolk LEA on site at Earthsea and, where possible, they are supported into mainstream provisions. Education at the Pupil Referral Unit is adapted to the developmental stage of each child and is supported by the care and treatment staff team.

Children who have had a very patchy experience of education have an opportunity to start again and learn the basics in small, intensive classes.
