About The Eaglewood School
The Eaglewood School is an Alternative Provision Free School helping students from Year 6 to Year 11 who struggle to learn in a mainstream educational environment. Recently judged Good in all areas by Ofsted, July 2019, we are a very unique provision. We focus on the barriers to learning of our young people, teaching them not only academically but also emotionally. Students at Eaglewood have regular input on social and emotional regulation, resilience and self-esteem as well as the more traditional academic subjects. By making sure all of our students are Academically Ready, Emotionally Prepared and Feel Good about their next steps we fulfil our mission statement of Raising Aspiration and Changing Lives.
Eaglewood is one of the newest schools in Hampshire, we have created an environment for students to feel safe and supported whatever the issues they are facing. This environment is a key factor in building the trust and developing the relationships which are imperative in order to bring about change. Eaglewood quickly becomes the change catalyst students require when the stresses of mainstream education become too much for them. For some students, many schools appear too big, too busy, too loud or just too confusing for them to cope with. We recognise one size does not fit all, and offer a safe, kind and caring environment which allows students to develop at different ages, at different rates and in different ways
At Eaglewood School our priority is to help find our students balance and purpose and to help them on their next steps. We realise the importance of Emotional Intelligence in helping unlock the potential in a child and helping them find their balance.
Here we provide and environment with a different purpose and priorities, one of care, understanding and kindness where we promote recognition, relationships and routine.
