Our vision is to provide a safe, positive, and structured environment in which young people can grow both emotionally and academically.

Here at the Moorfield Learning and Community Hub we work to provide the best possible learning outcomes for our young people who may currently struggle with mainstream education establishments. This could be missing education due to, illness, mental health, behavioural and emotional issues or have experienced difficulties with their learning. Whilst doing this our aim where possible is to reintegrate our pupils back to mainstream or an alternate learning provision.

We provide support in the exclusion process, which can be either short or long term, working with schools and pupils to reduce the risk to use fixed or permanent exclusion penalties or pupils who may be currently permanently excluded. We do this by adopting a multi-disciplinary approach to early intervention supporting the school, parents, carers, and individual pupils.

Our approach includes both academic and behaviour assessments, and from these a programme will be established. Our programme will include ‘an academic strand’ including Numeracy and Literacy. An ‘emotional literacy strand’ including strategies for coping in school, managing feelings and social skills and self-reflection. The ‘practical strand’ including education, art, outings, and outdoor education.
