Because every young person's journey is unique
Welcome to a space where everyone belongs. At Dreams and Wonders, we offer tailored support for young people (ages 7+) who struggle in mainstream education.
Why choose an Alternative Provison?
Dreams and Wonders
We understand that standard learning settings aren't a fit for everyone. Our provision is a safe space, specially designed to support pupils who are facing challenges such as:
-
ASC (Autism Spectrum Condition)
-
PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance)
-
ADHD & AuDHD
-
Anxiety & Stress
-
Low Confidence & Self-esteem
-
EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance)
-
Attachment difficulties or Trauma
-
Emotional regulation needs
Our aim is not simply to manage behaviour but to understand the experiences behind it, helping young people to develop confidence, resilience, emotional regulation and positive relationships.
Programmes are structured, supervised, and tailored to individual needs, strengths, and goals. We work collaboratively with schools, families and professionals and are happy to contribute towards EHCP outcomes where appropriate.
