Understand
Every learner is more than a referral. We listen to the learner, their family and the professionals who know them.
ABOUT UNIVERSAL CHILDCARE
We provide SEND support, alternative provision and specialist tuition for children and young people who need something different from education, working in partnership with local authorities, schools and families.

WHO WE ARE
Universal Childcare works with learners who are out of school, have been excluded, are at risk of disengaging or need specialist support to make progress. Many have special educational needs, an EHCP or experiences that have made school difficult.
We believe every child can make progress with the right relationship, the right plan and people who don’t give up on them. Our job is to provide that, and to keep everyone around the learner informed along the way.
Ask our team about current availability, the experience of the people who would work with your learner and the practical details of any proposed placement.
WHAT GUIDES OUR WORK
Every learner is more than a referral. We listen to the learner, their family and the professionals who know them.
We change our approach to fit the learner, rather than expecting the learner to fit the approach.
Clear plans, session records and progress reports mean commissioners and families know how a placement is going.
Every placement has a purpose: a return to school, a new setting or the next step into post-16 education or training.
