Welcome
I am pleased to welcome you to Flourish Specialist Education Services.
As part of Flourish Learning Trust, we seek to open up the world for children and young people with SEND and give them the tools, skills and confidence to move on to the next stage of their education and lives. There are two key focuses of our work:
First, we deliver exceptional training opportunities including Level 3, Foundation Degrees, Initial Teacher Training, Early Career Teacher Training, Postgraduate and Masters Level courses through our partnerships with a number of universities. We also provide a range of short programmes and talks on various aspects of Special Educational Needs. With a success rate of 100% on many of our courses, our training is informative, engaging and high-quality enabling participants to gain vital skills that will help them support their pupils and colleagues.
Second, we offer specialist outreach services to children and young people in mainstream and special needs schools across north and east London. Our team of expert SEND professionals support children and young people with vision impairment, those who are deaf or hard of hearing, those who have learning difficulties or those with autism spectrum conditions. We work closely with school leaders and teachers, giving them the tools and knowledge to enable their pupils to thrive within a mainstream or special school environment.
If you would like to know more about any aspect of our work, please get in touch with us.
