Providing for nurture
needs AND
positive learning
|
- We make sure the children are warm fed, watered and safe – physically and emotionally.
- Forest students may have learning difficulties or other additional needs.
- We aim to help children who have struggled or lack social skills and confidence enjoy peer and adult relationships and have a good time whilst they learn. We aim for an approach that always allows for achievement.
- We use a non-coercive approach based on co-operation and trusting relationships which we call ‘People and Life Skills’.
