About Forwards Centre

The Forwards Centre is an alternative educational academy for primary aged pupils with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs. We believe that all children, regardless of their prior experiences can achieve success. We aim to reconnect often excluded and disengaged pupils with a love of learning and transform that into long-lasting success over time.

"Life-Changing Experience for Our Child"

Our daughter spent a year at the Forwards Centre and it was genuinely a life-changing experience for her. The centre's calm and welcoming environment helped to rebuild her love of learning, and the staff's dedication to each child's success is unparalleled. We're so grateful for the opportunity she had to thrive there.

"Some Good, Some Room for Improvement"

Our experience with the Forwards Centre has been mixed. On the one hand, the staff are lovely and seem to genuinely care about the children. However, we've encountered some difficulties with communication and felt that our concerns weren't always addressed promptly. That being said, our child does seem to be enjoying their time there and is making progress, so we're hopeful that things will continue to improve.

"A Home Away from Home"

The Forwards Centre has been a godsend for our son, who struggled to cope with mainstream education. The staff are caring, supportive, and go above and beyond to ensure each child's needs are met. We've seen a huge improvement in his confidence and attitude since joining. I truly believe their values of Believe, Inspire, and Transform are making a real difference.
