We Believe You Achieve

We Believe You Achieve is exploring the possibility of running afternoon sessions for young people who are Electively Home Educated, particularly those with SEND, SEMH or who struggled in mainstream education.

Many families choose home education because school simply wasn’t working for their child. We are looking at creating a safe, supportive space where young people can rebuild confidence, develop skills and connect with others.

These sessions may include:

- Mentoring and wellbeing support
- Boxing and fitness activities
- Life skills and confidence building
- English and maths support
- Vocational tasters (beauty, construction, digital media etc.)
- A safe place to socialise and build friendships

We are gathering feedback from parents to see if this would be helpful for families in the local area.

If you have a home educated young person aged 11–16, we would really appreciate you taking 2 minutes to complete this short survey.

We’ve officially launched our Community Interest Company (CIC) created for one clear purpose:

To support children, young people, and families who need help the most.

What does this mean for the community?

- Access to funded and low-cost support programmes
- Early intervention for young people at risk of exclusion or disengagement
- Support for children out of education
- Emotional regulation, confidence-building & wellbeing programmes
- Pathways for reintegration to education
- Community-based projects funded through grants, donations & partnerships

Our CIC allows us to reach families who may not otherwise be able to access alternative provision ensuring no child is left behind due to financial barriers.

Same values. Same care. Wider impact.

Every surplus we generate through the CIC is reinvested straight back into:
• children
• programmes
• resources
• opportunities for our local community

This is about belief, opportunity, and second chances.

If you’re a parent, school, professional, or organisation who wants to collaborate, refer, or support our mission we’d love to hear from you..

🚫 Lack of Local Provision = Lost Potential

📍 Glossop & the High Peak are facing a growing crisis:
There are very limited Alternative Provision (AP) places available for children aged 11–16 who can’t cope in mainstream school.

👉 Children with SEMH, SEND, anxiety, trauma or at risk of exclusion are often:
❌ Left on reduced timetables
❌ Sent miles out of area
❌ Waiting months for support
❌ Falling behind or dropping out completely

⸻

📣 Parents are in crisis.
Schools are stretched.
And too many young people are falling through the cracks.

⸻

🌟 That’s why we created We Believe You Achieve:
A new, local, therapeutic alternative provision in Glossop offering:
✅ Small group & 1:1 support
✅ Qualification-based short courses
✅ Trauma-informed mentoring
✅ Referrals from schools or parents welcome

📍 Supporting 11–16 year olds in Glossop & surrounding areas

Let’s fill the gap — before more kids fall through it

📊 Derbyshire School Exclusion Crisis
• In 2022–23, Derbyshire schools suspended a record 12,344 students more than double the pre-pandemic figure of 5,033 .
• During the 2023 spring term alone, there were 4,560 suspensions in Derbyshire up from 3,685 the year before .
• That spring term also saw 71 permanent exclusions, a 26% increase over the previous year

🙁 Many of these exclusions are due to persistent disruptive behaviour, and affect those with unmet SEMH or special educational needs .

🧠 The Real Impact
• Kids hit hardest are often from disadvantaged backgrounds or with SEND/EHCPs
• Suspensions cause significant setbacks leading to missed GCSEs, lower future prospects, poor mental health, and potential NEET outcomes
• Schools and LAs spend a fortune on emergency placements and support after exclusion

✅ Our Goal

We Believe You Achieve will provide timely, safe alternative provision in Glossop keeping students engaged before they reach crisis point.
