​Wickselm House Learning Centre is a unique not-for-profit enterprise launched to support children who currently need an alternative learning experience outside of full-time mainstream or specialist education. on a part-time basis through our outdoor ethos and on-site farm, we provide a therapeutic environment where children can feel safe, heard, and valued, connecting with animals and nature while accessing an academic curriculum, with an emphasis on social, emotional and physical development. Our team of professional therapists, teachers, SENCo's and support staff have P.A.C.E training and DDP embedded in their practise. Our aim is to support our young people to have a positive sense of self worth and in turn a love and curiosity of leaning. We aim to broaden every individual child's prospects and resilience giving them the opportunity to reconnect with full-time education and  to show the world what they have to offer.

​We offer a range of recognised qualifications and awards tailored to each young person’s interests, abilities and aspirations, including ASDAN programmes and AQA Unit Awards. As an approved Functional Skills provider, we work with Pass Functional Skills and the Edexcel and Open Awards examination boards, enabling young people to complete qualifications within our supportive setting and access appropriate reasonable adjustments. Preparation for adulthood and PSHE are embedded throughout our bespoke curriculum, helping young people develop confidence, independence, practical life skills and meaningful participation in their communities.
