Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis Pilot Project

Project Intent

Welcome to Metamorphosis, a dedicated SEMH (Social, Emotional, and Mental Health) provision committed to supporting students who require specialised attention in managing their social, emotional, and mental health needs.

At Metamorphosis, we offer a nurturing and inclusive environment designed to help every student achieve their full potential. Our highly trained and compassionate staff work closely with students to develop personalised learning plans that address both their academic and emotional needs. 

Our Offerings Include - 

Individualised Education Programs (IEPs):  Customised plans that cater to the unique learning styles and needs of each student. 

Therapeutic Support: On-site counselling and mental health services provided by licensed professionals to support students' emotional well-being. 

Small Class Sizes: Ensuring personalised attention and a supportive learning atmosphere. 

Life Skills Development: Programs focused on social skills, self-regulation, and independent living to prepare students for life beyond the classroom. 

Holistic Approach: Integrating academic learning with physical, emotional, and social development to foster well-rounded growth. 

At Metamorphosis, we believe in empowering our students to overcome their challenges, build resilience, and achieve success in all aspects of their lives.

Induction

Pre-meeting with all professional involved in the pupils’ life including parents/carers. Clear long-term outcomes will be identified and a personalised programme will be devised which will map out how we plan to achieve these outcomes. Pupils will be able to input into this plan but separate to the meeting due to their mental health needs.
