‘Celebrating individuality, we aim to create an inclusive, creative, passion-based learning environment where every person is valued’
We have created a flexible, passion-based curriculum that focuses on emotional well-being, whist also making planning easier. This allows teachers to follow a structure but also make changes that are suitable for their children’s and young people’s individual needs.

All our resources have been successfully delivered in schools across the UK over many years. They have been evaluated and accredited with outstanding outcomes, contributing positively to children’s and young people’s emotional well-being.
Please note: Not all activities are suitable for every child. Educators are encouraged to use professional judgement when selecting activities for their setting. All our resources are cross curricula, integrating emotional well-being and learning. Our resources are also suitable for mainstream students, for PSHE planning.
The SEND Academy curriculum is a flexible, person centred, passion-based approach to learning, ensuring that each child/young person gains a sense of leadership and independence. Our curriculum model is based on how neurodivergent children and young people, learn, grow and thrive. Through scaffolding we provide learning opportunities that enhance their learning experience.
We have developed a curriculum that allows time and space for creativity, to celebrate individuality, and to promote inclusion. With over 300 resources including cognition, executive functioning and self and co-regulation, we aim to develop independent learners who are able to use their learning experience and enhance innovative thinking.
