Welcome to the Boost Engagement Hub
The Engagement Hub provides flexible, trauma-informed alternative provision for children and young people who are struggling to fully access mainstream education. Our approach focuses on rebuilding confidence, emotional wellbeing, positive relationships, and engagement with learning.
We recognise that many children referred to alternative provision have experienced barriers to education including anxiety, social and emotional difficulties, adverse childhood experiences, unmet additional needs, disrupted attendance, exclusion risk, low self-esteem, or difficulties within traditional classroom environments.
Our provision is designed to create a safe, nurturing and supportive environment where children and young people can regulate, reconnect and re-engage.
The Engagement Hub works in partnership with schools, local authorities, parents/carers and professionals to provide personalised support that enables children and young people to achieve positive educational and personal outcomes.
To provide a safe, inclusive, nurturing environment where children and young people feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.
The Engagement Hub is built around the belief that relationships, trust, consistency, and emotional safety are essential foundations for learning.
We aim to:
- Build confidence and resilience
- Promote emotional wellbeing
- Encourage positive relationships
- Develop independence and life skills
- Support successful reintegration into schools where appropriate
- Help children and young people experience success
- Provide meaningful and engaging learning experiences
We adopt a trauma-informed and relational approach that recognises behaviour as communication and prioritises connection before correction.
The Engagement Hub delivers flexible alternative provision tailored to the needs of individual learners.
Provision may include:
- Part-time alternative provision placements
- Intervention programmes
- Transition support
- Emotional wellbeing support
- Nurture-based sessions
- Small group learning

- Confidence-building activities
- Engagement programmes
Our environment is designed to feel calm, welcoming and supportive.
We aim to provide opportunities for children and young people to experience achievement, belonging and personal growth.
