During the summer months we run courses for Individuals and during the student’s recreational time we use a team of House Parents / Pastoral Staff to support them during the evenings, mornings, and some overnights. This role includes providing proactive pastoral support, including a range of activities in the evening, and being a point of contact for anyone contacting the centre outside of office hours.
