Thrive Support
Some students require further intervention to support their individual needs. Our trained thrive practitioner will work with these children through individual or group sessions, to ensure a safe space for growth.
Some of the difficulties these children may have include:
- Difficulties with friendships
- Finding it hard to settle into the classroom routine/structure.
- Finding it difficult to manage their strong feelings.
- Not knowing who to turn to when feelings are too big to manage independently.
These situations can lead to many feelings, which can sometimes feel overwhelming. They might include: anger, frustration, sadness, loneliness, confusion, or anxiety. All these feelings are very normal and are felt by many students.

Just wanted to let you know that T has attended School everyday this week and we have even increased his time to 1pm!
He came home with a certificate for ‘Pupil Of The Week’, which he is very proud of! It was for attending all week and completing all of his schoolwork. Thank you and all the team at SB for helping him get to a stage in his life where he is able to succeed at school.
