OUR UNDERSTANDING OF NEEDS

Young people are in the process of shaping their identities, but challenges like family stress, insecure attachments, social media, negative peer influences, and environmental factors can disrupt their growth and development.

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), such as abuse or neglect, can significantly affect a young person’s mental health, emotional well-being, and overall development, shaping their future relationships and resilience.

An unstable family or home environment can disrupt a young person’s sense of security, affecting their emotional well-being, mental health, and overall stability, making it harder to thrive and develop.

Young people with special educational needs, disabilities, and health challenges require tailored support, inclusive care, and accessible resources to help them thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Lacking supportive relationships can hinder a young person’s emotional and social development, making it harder for them to build confidence, resilience, and a sense of belonging.

Young people may encounter educational challenges that must be addressed to support their academic success, personal growth, and future opportunities.

Poverty, systemic inequalities related to ethnicity, class, and gender can create significant barriers for young people, impacting their opportunities, well-being, and future success.

Living in high-crime areas with limited social opportunities can expose young people to risks like child sexual exploitation (CSE), county lines, anti-social behavior, and substance misuse.

Hive House SEN specialists will provide additional support for young people with special educational needs. All staff will be trained in emotional regulation and calming techniques to help children manage their emotions.

Hive House creates personalised care plans tailored to individual needs and goals, addressing challenges faced by SEN children through targeted support in sensory, communication, and emotional strategies.

Hive House offers art therapy, sports, cooking, and pet care to help young people develop their passions and use their time constructively. Multi-sensory learning, including music and hands-on activities, supports diverse learning styles.

Encouraging young people to engage in local activities helps build a sense of belonging, reduce isolation, and foster positive social connections, ultimately lowering the risk of criminal behaviour.

Hive House helps young people transition back to their families, foster care, or independent living, providing stability, support, and essential life skills to build confidence for the future.

Hive House adopts a multi-disciplinary approach, working with various agencies and professionals to provide holistic, inclusive care that meets the complex needs of SEN children.
