What is Beach School?
We are based on the Beach and try to get outside as much as possible for rock walking and play. We walk, forage and investigate and discover rock pools and the world of the sea. Fresh air and listening to our outside world. We also create and design an idea to be made in any form we imagine. Pottery, painting, melting and banging. Alongside which we sometimes cook and use microscopes. On wet days we may create a 3D print or learn coding! Or simply paint and draw. The activites are fun but designed to encourage and expand and normally we do a lot of chatting. Over 30 children have now been 'to Beach School' and have created, laughed discovered and imagined! It has been wonderful and such privilege.
About The Beach School
Innovative Educational Consulting Solutions
I am an Educational Therapist and Teacher of 35 years. Dedicated to enhancing learning strategies, boosting confidence, and supporting the overall well-being of individuals. Our approach focuses on behavior, self-belief, and resilience, creating a foundation for positive growth and development.<br/>We are also an authorised ADHD Testing Centre, using the QBcheck system endorsed by the ADHD foundation and NHS. Bookings for children are available on Thursday and Fridays, offering a private option that complements other healthcare and educational support services. We use 'Eco-Sensory' Therapy to underpin our sessions and this has had a profound impact on the well being and mental health of our pupils.
We work alongside local schools with children coming out of their school day to attend, as well as after School. Intervention support in this environment has proved extremely effective in allowing children to regulate their emotions and deal with a full week.
How did The Beach School Begin....
The Beach School started before and during COVID when local children were finding it difficult to adapt to the online learning provision. As restrictions reduced, children came down on a one to one to enjoy a little bit of hands on learning and fun. Having worked in many different local primary schools it became clear that Beach Therapy offered a unique opportunity for children to learn in an very 'free' environment. Many different craft options were developed and now most children come down and complete both School work and a project. The scope of The Beach School evoloved with connections established with other online professionals. Speech Therapy and Forest workshops have now evolved into a Beach experience, which is totally unique.
What happens next?
Take a look at the gallery and then if you want to come and visit.
Contact me via my email or phone number. I will then set up a one to one meeting with you and your child/teen. We will discuss the things that we can do to support. I run sessions throughout the day. Some schools see the attnedance as an 'intervenion' into the school week to help support mental health and well being. Slots at the end of the day are very busy. I prefer to take the younger children earlier as a full day can make them very tired. There is a waiting list and all of those that wish to attend can be placed on the list for future gaps.
Grants/Cash for Kids
Times can be financially tough and there are grants available to both Schools and families for the costs. We have had a great response from Cash for Kids (formerly MFR) I do recommend looking at this site as they are live with grant applications for
Mental Health and well-being Therapy* including counselling, music / art therapy, speech / language therapy, physiotherapy, bereavement support, sensory equipment.
