The Edison Centre is an alternative placement for children from Foundation Stage to Year 6 with intensive provision meeting specific targets, enabling children to succeed in mainstream education. Children learn through a thematic and trauma informed approach centred around STEM.
We will provide a package of specialist support for child and family. There will be collaborative work between us and the child’s setting to ensure smooth transition and progress towards positive targets. We can offer a comfortable space with a classroom, break/lunch room, therapeutic play room, STEM lab, outside area (with animals), all of which are screen-free nurturing environments for our learners.
The Edison Centre as part of Discovery Multi Academy Trust is now recognised as a Mentally Healthy Organisation by The Centre for Child Mental Health and Trauma Informed Schools UK.
