If you're a professional, parent or carer, curious about whether The Haven could be the right fit, watch this video from our Head, Kirsten & book onto a Meet the Head session to ask questions directly. Video: https://bit.ly/4y5sGvG Event: https://bit.ly/4viwFmb #AlternativeProvision #EOTIS
"Photo of Kirsten Roy, Head of The Haven, a woman with long blonde wavy hair wearing a dark top, smiling at the camera. Beside her, white text on a grey-to-maroon gradient background reads: 'Every young person is entitled to an appropriate education that genuinely works for them, not just in theory, but in practice.' Below the quote is her name and title, 'Kirsten Roy, Head of The Haven'. The Haven logo appears in the bottom left corner."

Swipe to see brilliant artwork by two of our learners at The Haven. Drew's character illustration is stunning, and Phoebe has been creating gorgeous original characters, Ketta  and Aspen. We are so proud of both of them. #TheHaven #EOTAS #OnlineSchool #AlternativeProvision
Anime-style illustration of a pale-skinned character with short white hair, red rectangular glasses, colourful braces, and a grey chunky knit jumper. They are grinning and holding up a green camouflage-patterned drinks can. Character reference sheet for an original character named Ketta (they/it pronouns). Ketta is a humanoid fox character with curly brown hair, a fox mask, leaf earrings, a sun necklace, a cream embroidered top, layered green and rust-coloured skirts, and brown boots. The sheet includes colour swatches, annotated design notes, and two additional head views showing detail. Text describes Ketta as "quiet but outspoken, loves nature," with the name derived from the Finnish word for fox, "kettu." Reference sheet for character - Aspen (19, she/her). A girl with brown hair styled in space buns, green peekaboo highlights, purple rattails, & fringe. She has green eyes with winged eyeliner, a star stamp, & purple eyeshadow, and wears grey headphones, a green t-shirt, brown dungarees, & dark green Converse. Colour swatches for hair, face, & body, annotated design notes, & 2 additional head views. Full name Aspen Jade Lumena, 5ft 8in, has a tabby cat called Fern, & her style is "whimsy twee."

A really useful guide on section 19 and understanding how it works (and what doesn't work) in practice, including how online provision fits in from Jodie Phillips BSc. #RISEEduMag #AlternativeProvision #Section19 #OnlineProvision #Inclusion #AP www.riseedumag.com/section-19-i...
Section 19 in practice: What happens when a child can’t attend school? - R.I.S.E. Magazine
Section 19 of the Education Act 1996 places a duty on Local Authorities to ensure that students who cannot attend school still receive a suitable education.

Haven't been out for a run.. yet.... have done pilates and submitted the whole new evidence bundle for tribunal that was cancelled and is now re scheduled. So over adulting, but look what small made today! My bit of #dailyjoy #pumpkins #Halloween #alternativeprovision #LapwingEducation
Two Halloween pumpkins carved with cat faces. They are lit up on our dining room table. Behind our dinner time candles are lit and the fairy lights are on. You can see my lego flowers to the right and our bench and noticeboard behind.

Some beautiful examples of digital design practice by Amy and Niamh in our Back to Balance Learning programme. This programme gives learners a sanctuary to decompress, understand their brain, and rediscover the joy of learning.

#OnlineLearning #AlternativeProvision #EOTAS #Neurodivergent
Beautiful digital images created by learners at The Haven. Niamh has created a butterfly, Amy has drawn a cat and 2 smaller animals.
