Primary & Secondary
The Cabin
Our flagship Primary and Secondary centre on the Ashton Court estate, where SEMH specialists deliver a holistic curriculum combining therapeutic intervention, sports coaching and an outdoor setting.
Welcome to The Cabin
The Cabin is our flagship Primary and Secondary centre, set on the Ashton Court estate. Access to green space, clean air and working within nature supports physical and mental wellbeing, especially for young people who may not otherwise have access to outdoor settings.
Sessions are designed and led by qualified teachers and SEMH specialists with experience across schools, PRUs and other alternative provision. The curriculum is wide and diverse, balancing positive experiences with academic and vocational qualifications.
Students build resilience and independence through a bespoke programme. Specialised therapeutic interventions, sports coaching and the outdoor setting give students a platform to learn new skills.

The Cabin works best for children who:
- Have struggled with the size or pace of mainstream classrooms

- Have an EHCP, or are being assessed for one
- Need re-engagement with learning before transition back to mainstream
- Benefit from small-group teaching and 1:1 support
