Across the Federation we cater for pupils between the ages of 2 to 19 with wide ranging special educational needs including physical and medical needs, Autistic Spectrum Disorders and social communication difficulties and severe and profound learning difficulties. Both schools enjoy excellent facilities and provide high quality, individualised provision for all pupils by working closely with other professionals. The over-riding aim of our Federation is to provide an inclusive education in the most real sense; preparing young people to take a confident and active place in society, who are well prepared to meet the challenges of adult life, including the world of work, continuing education and independent living and the world of day care provision for those where further education is not the most appropriate next step after leaving school. We are very proud of the Federation and are always pleased to welcome visitors. (Due to COVID-19 restrictions we are only able to offer a virtual tour) Whether you are a prospective parent and child, a colleague from another school or profession or a member of the local community please telephone either school and we will be happy to show you around. We hope that you can find all of the information you need on our websites – if not, please do not hesitate to contact either St Francis School or St Christopher’s School with your query where Administrative Staff and Senior Staff of each site are available to talk to you.

Traumatic Birth Recovery

If you've had a traumatic birth or have symptoms of PTSD because of a difficult birth experience, we explain birth trauma, its symptoms & treatment.I am Alexandra Heath, Clinical Hypnotherapist (DipHyp since 2010, NCH registered), birth doula, founder of this website and creator of the book and training resources listed on this website. I believe that the parenting life stage is fraught with trauma, change and transition. As such it naturally is a time when emotional and mental wellbeing is often tested, strained and vulnerable. P1020162.jpg How we feel during pregnancy about transitioning into motherhood, how we birth and how we are cared for afterwards can all have seismic and long term effects on how we feel and how we parent. Problems with trauma symptoms, anxiety and depression are unsurprisingly common for parents navigating the choppy waters of fertility, pregnancy, birth, post natal recovery and the first year. I love supporting parents so that they can navigate these challenges and to go on and thrive with their families. I have worked with 100s of parents to lift the heavy feelings that can remain after a difficult or traumatic birth, or perinatal experience. This therapeutic process has proved so effective for parents that I have trained over 350 birth professionals in these skills since 2016. You can find a list of those practitioners here. I have practices in West London and also treat people via Zoom. Please click here to email and book a free consultation.

The Compassionate Mind Foundation

For thousands of years, compassion has been seen as the antidote to suffering and harmfulness. Research has now revealed how our capacities for compassion evolved, how it works in our bodies and our brains, and when cultivated, is a source of courage and wisdom to address suffering. The definition of compassion used by the Compassionate Mind Foundation is "...a sensitivity to suffering in self and others with a commitment to try to alleviate and prevent it." Compassionate courage lies in the willingness to see into the nature and causes of suffering - in ourselves, others and the human condition. The Compassionate Mind Foundation was founded as an international charity in 2006 by Professor Paul Gilbert and colleagues including Prof Deborah Lee, Dr Mary Welford, Dr Chris Irons, Dr Ken Goss, Dr Ian Lowens, Dr Chris Gillespie, Diane Woollands and Jean Gilbert. We believe that one of the greatest challenges facing humanity is how to stimulate compassionate ways of thinking and problem solving for the benefit of all. The Compassionate Mind Foundation promotes an evolutionary and bio-psycho-social informed approach to compassion which now forms the basis of a psychotherapy (CFT) and Compassionate Mind Training. The last 15 years have seen an expanding evidence base for a compassion focused approach to the alleviation of mental health difficulties and promoting wellbeing. It is now being used internationally in various settings including hospitals, prisons, schools and businesses. ‍

As a leading training provider, we aim to provide business knowledge & services to transform people and industry.  Whyy choose us?  "I have just recently finished my CMI Level 5 apprenticeship in Management & Leadership. Despite the challenges of COVID in the last 18 months Whyy Change quickly adapted to online learning and they were always there for me. I couldn't recommend them anymore, fantastic experience. Abi Holloway Supply Chain Manager, Sonoco Consumer Products Ltd I decided to do an apprenticeship to develop my skills in my role and was thrilled to come away with a distinction Level 4 Improvement Practitioner. Whilst Lean doesn’t always fit in my work environment I have come away with many tools and techniques that I can use to make my work more effective. The team at Whyy Change were friendly and informative and fully supported us through Covid-19 lockdowns, supporting us with regular Zoom calls when we were unable to visit the office. Amanda Hammer Digital Designer, Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council Having worked with Whyy? Change for a number of years, I have had nothing but excellent feedback from every apprentice or team member who has engaged in training with them. The whole Whyy? Change team go that extra mile to ensure that learners find the best way to learn for them and encourage and inspire success. Julia Bloomer DL Head of Learning & Development and HR, AESSEAL PLC I’ve recently completed my Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) Level 4 Digital Marketing Qualification through an apprenticeship. Emma was extremely helpful throughout the onboarding process and explained everything. My tutor was Laura, who answered any question I had and explained the content in multiple ways if I didn’t understand a certain topic. I can’t recommend Whyy? Change enough it was a great environment to learn within. Such a supportive, caring and encouraging environment. Millie Wilkinson Communications Assistant, Henry Boot PLC I would highly recommend doing an apprenticeship or any other course with Whyy? Change. The help and support I received from all the staff was like no other and I always received 100% from all of them. I’ll be very very impressed and shocked if anyone else can top the level of kindness, helpfulness, passion and respect shown by Whyy? Change. Whether you're straight out of school or looking for a career change after 20 years, Whyy? is the one to choose.
