Flexible, high-quality commissioned tutoring and mentoring for schools and local authorities across England — including pupil premium support, alternative provision, EHCP tutoring, looked after children provision and exclusion reintegration.
We work alongside schools as a trusted partner — not a one-size-fits-all provider. Our approach to school partnerships means we design provision that complements your existing support structures rather than duplicating them.
Thrive works directly alongside your SENCO and school team, delivering personalised one-to-one tutoring and mentoring for pupils with SEND, EBSA and SEMH needs that complements your existing provision rather than duplicating it.
Whether you need targeted intervention for a small group, intensive one-to-one support for a pupil with complex needs, or a longer-term mentoring programme for vulnerable young people, we can build a package around your school's specific requirements. The referral process is designed to move from first contact to first session quickly.
