## About

INNOV4TE Independent School is a special school that provides a broad and balanced curriculum for learners who are not engaged in mainstream education or are at risk of exclusion. We cater to learners aged 11-16, who are referred from schools and the Local Authority, with many facing significant learning obstacles in mainstream environments, often exhibiting emotional, and/or behaviour challenges. Our approach is systematic, yet bespoke, and we operate using a variety of models, theories, and approaches.

## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Exceptional School - Life Changing: INNOV4TE has been a game-changer for my son. The staff are incredibly supportive and have helped him to grow in confidence. The outdoor programmes, especially the outdoor learning programme, have helped him to develop essential life skills. I couldn't be more grateful to the entire team at INNOV4TE. *(May 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Mixed Experience: We had a mixed experience with INNOV4TE. While the staff were generally supportive, we felt that the school's approach to some of our son's needs could have been more tailored. The outdoor programmes were a highlight, but we wished for more communication with the teachers about our son's progress. Overall, it was a good experience, but with some areas for improvement. *(Feb 2022)*
- **5/5** — Best Decision We Ever Made: We were worried about our son's SEMH needs, but INNOV4TE has exceeded our expectations. The school's focus on social, emotional, and mental health has helped him to thrive. The team's commitment to supporting the whole child, not just academically, has been outstanding. We're so grateful to have found this school. *(Dec 2021)*
