The Nexus

Nexus is a small provision with a specialist classroom and sensory area within the main school at Archers brook, that provides a tailored approach for children who have SEMH needs. We are a small class with limited numbers, we encourage engagement and success for each child and ensure this with a unique approach to their learning. We provide a low arousal area where children can find a genuine passion for school and their learning in the best environment for their needs. 

We use sensory input and regulation support to ensure that children are able to access their learning and create a positive environment for them to ensure they are able to access their individualised curriculum. 

Life skills, problem solving and independence skills are explored. We look at social interaction, communication and encourage readiness for their future in education. We have high supervision and support the children with social stories, speech and language, therapy sessions, using a multi sensory approach. 

Our ethos in Nexus is to "Support, educate, encourage and belong. " We want children to have a positive successful journey into high school and beyond.
