This small, specialist provision in Richmond is growing. It focuses on supporting students who need more than a standard classroom can offer. You will be part of something genuinely meaningful here. The School and Students This is a nurturing setting for Key Stages 3 and 4 pupils who are working at a primary level due to missed learning, trauma, or underlying needs. Most students have a combination of Autism, ADHD, and Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) challenges. The behaviour can be complex at times, but it always comes from a place of unmet need. They value calm, creative, and compassionate teachers who see beyond the behaviour and work from a place of empathy and consistency. Your Role as a Nurture Teacher
