Who will I be teaching?

Really NEET was born from the need to offer a safe, inclusive and supportive learning environment for young people aged 16-24yrs who have struggled to cope in mainstream education.
Most of our learners will have some form external barriers to education also. We offer holistic wrap around support teamed with a youth work approach so that we can support our learners to thrive inside and outside of the classroom.
All of our learners have an Educational, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) and as a result all have some level of additional need. Some of the most common areas of need that we see are Social, Emotional, Mental Health (SEMH), Autism (ASC), ADHD although we work with learners with a much broader range of needs.
To allow our learners to thrive we work in small group sizes of approx. 6-10 with support staff
Ahead of any learner coming to us we consult with the local authority to ensure that we are the most suitable provider to meet their needs.
