Teacher Active is proud to be working with schools in Stafford that support vulnerable students with SEND/Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and SEMH/Social Emotional Mental Health needs ranging from Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD) to Challenging behaviour. The schools cater to children and students with needs such as disruptive behaviour, outbursts of verbal and physical frustration, ADHD and Autism.
The schools we work with pride themselves in offering a range of support to their students by creating a calm and supportive atmosphere, which encourages young minds to believe, achieve and succeed in anything they set out for. By building and strengthening healthy relationships with teachers, it allows the school to obtain outstanding performances and results to provide quality outcomes for the future of their students.
