Multi-Academy Trust

We know that Covid-19 and broader socio-economic challenges have led to a rise in anxiety, school absence, and social and behavioural needs. The nurture approach is a cost-effective approach to increasing attendance, reducing exclusions and tackling behaviour to improve academic performance across academies.

How nurture can help your Trust

Our evidence-based training and resources, led by expert practitioners, can support your staff to embed a personalised nurturing approach that is tailored to your trusts’ values. We offer bespoke pricing for multi academy trusts, ensuring excellent value for money for your academies.

In the last year, we have worked with 40 multi-academy trusts to embed nurture in over 260 schools.

“I have witnessed first-hand the transformative power of the nurturing approach in our schools. Serving communities facing high levels of deprivation, our schools have become the central points of the communities, nurturing not just academic growth but the holistic wellbeing of our children, parents, and staff.”

James Roach

CEO of the Inclusive Multi Academy Trust

"This time last academic year we had made 15 Fixed Term Exclusions... so far this year we
have made none [...] this is down to staff understanding the behaviour more, caring more, being more nurturing and emotionally tuned in.”

“Working with nurtureuk these past few months, we have seen the impact of the programme in developing strong connections, ensuring our pupils feel not just safe, but genuinely heard. Developing an inclusive and nurturing culture is essential for the progress and future opportunities of our pupils. The [nurture] programme has helped in enhancing this culture in all our schools.”

“When I was at my maths and English, I was absolutely rubbish, didn’t do anything. Then when I started [the nurture group] they taught me stuff...and now I’m starting to learn.”

Nurture group pupil

“This child has gone from 15 minutes a day of timetabled learning to being in school full time. By providing trauma informed support and a range of wellbeing activities the child is now better able to cope with school.”

Teacher

Wittersham Primary School

"I instantly saw a change in behaviour from my son, before it was a struggle to get him to school and he did not want to go. On weekends, he cannot wait to start school on Monday, as he said in his words: “Mummy I love school, I like learning.”

Parent of child attending nurture provision

London, 2023

“I was previously told that he could not learn in a school environment and certainly not work unsupported, this has been proven to be untrue. Where school had previously felt unsafe the nurture provision has been an essential part of him settling in and being happy in a new school environment.”
