About Fresh Start In Education Ltd

At Fresh Start in Education Ltd. we specialise in the re-engagement of students who have been excluded from school or are out of education. This includes students who are at risk of exclusion or have already been permanently or temporarily excluded, school refusers, young offenders, those with emotional or behavioural difficulties, serious health issues or those who are generally disengaged from education. We work with all ages from early years through to adult.

We provide bespoke, child-centred, high quality education programmes, which ensure that all the students that we work with have outstanding opportunities to re-integrate into regular or specialist education. We provide the encouragement and tools for students to develop and apply the knowledge, skills and understanding that will help them become successful at learning, confident as individuals and to live productive and responsible lives.

We work with Local Authorities, Schools and Private Individuals – parents or adoptive parents.

We are a UK WIDE provision – we go anywhere – anytime. We deliver our services wherever the student is, so no matter how disengaged or hostile to education we will meet them where they are and work from there
