Structured, purposeful, and fully reported.
Full and part-time alternative provision for children and young people educated outside mainstream school. Commissioned by schools and local authorities. Delivered with consistency and care.
AP that is genuinely alternative
Our alternative provision is built around individual children — their EHCP outcomes, their emotional baseline, and their educational needs. Every placement starts with an assessment and a personalised plan.
We deliver across multiple environments — Canterbury Centre, Maypole Farm, and Haven Nook — so we can match the setting to the child, not the other way around.
As a KCC preferred SEND provider, we understand commissioning expectations. We provide timely, accurate documentation and are fully responsive to reviewing professionals.

Reporting and review
We produce written progress reports at agreed intervals, attend annual reviews, and maintain contact with case workers throughout placements. All documentation is clear, timely, and structured around outcomes.
We are experienced in working within multi-agency frameworks and will engage with any professionals already involved in a young person's care.
