My Personal Pathway is our new intervention programme to support secondary students with their social, emotional, and behavioural needs. This programme has been designed around research and theory-based practice to ensure that the best educational pathway is identified for individual learners. The course is designed as a 12-week programme that will focus on learning about ourselves, our development, and strategies to aid regulation in a learning environment. By using a blended approach to learning that incorporates both classroom and outdoor activities we aim to identify possible reasons for a student's lack of engagement and/or struggles in education. Where required, with the support from educational psychologists, other professional agencies, and the use of augmented reality and virtual reality technology, this course is a unique and bespoke opportunity to engage students with their learning.
All activities are carefully planned to promote literacy and numeracy throughout the course. Students' needs and abilities are assessed and supported throughout the programme and comprehensive reports are written, these reports are made accessible to schools and other professionals working with the child.

This programme falls into the ‘Flourish Category’ which is a highly supportive 12-week programme (2 days per week), where a student is educated through the use of therapeutic approaches and a full assessment is completed throughout the duration of the course. This Flourish Pathway Review can be used by schools to initiate or update a ‘My Support Plan’ for the student which will be provided to the referring school at the end of the placement with recommendations, advisories of support and student development feedback.
This Tier 2 Targeted Programme has been specifically designed to support students who are experiencing high anxiety and this is affecting their attendance and behaviour at school.
