We teach children and young people in a multitude of settings whether it be at home, our outreach centre or a convenient and safe option that works for the student, families and staff.
EK Outreach Services is a SEND tuition service providing educational support to Local Authorities, Schools and Individuals. Our trained and dedicated staff are led by a skilled and experienced leadership team. We work with children and young people of any age, up to age of 25. Students can be taught at their homes, online or at our Outreach Centre in Manor House.
Our aim is to improve the learning outcomes of children and young people for whom education has been a challenge either through their SEND needs, SEMH needs, or other reasons which may prevent them from fully accessing education.
