- Notes
TCES - The Complete Education Solution - is a social enterprise providing Therapeutic Education to neurodiverse pupils at our five schools and services in and around London and nationally via TCES National Online School, supporting students who are often marginalised and fall through the education net.
Our therapeutic approach nurtures and supports pupils to find their talents and skills and give them the best opportunities for positive social, emotional, and academic outcomes. We never exclude pupils; we never give up on them. The TCES National Online School offers a full curriculum and therapeutic support to children and young people aged 5 to 25 who are unable to attend school. This can be for a variety of reasons and can be linked to school anxiety, special educational needs, emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA), or where a current school isn't meeting needs. Pupils on our programmes typically have an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) but we also support those either at the start of the EHCP process or without an EHCP. We offer the core subjects of English, Maths and Science plus additional subjects and we can support pupils to take GCSEs and A levels, including providing invigilators in the family home where needed. Our experienced and qualified therapy team offers Speech and Language, Occupational Therapy and psychodynamic therapies (e.g. Art and Drama Therapy) based on our assessments of each child's need.
The TCES National Online School approach
Our team work collaboratively with each pupil and their family (plus school and Local Authority where appropriate) to create an online education programme which can include therapy where required. This will be regularly reviewed to ensure that it continues to meet the child or young person's needs. Our aim is for each child or young person we support to be able to re-engage with education and move back into an appropriate school setting. In 2021/2, after an average placement of six months, almost 80% of TCES Online School pupils were ready to reintegrate to school or college.

"Pupils excel at this school, both academically and socially. Pupils with complex learning needs join the school after multiple school placements. Most pupils have gaps in their education, and some have a history of permanent exclusions. The school's 'community values', such as hard work and high expectations, are routinely upheld." - Ofsted. "TCES North West London is an amazing school, so welcoming and friendly. I am continually impressed by how nurturing and loving the teachers and staff are while providing excellent structure and guidance for our children's needs." - Parent. TCES promise

What others say
'Pupils arrive at the school having experienced significant challenges; some have not had formal education for prolonged periods of time. As a result of good teaching and care, pupils settle quickly and make good progress in most subjects, including English and mathematics.' - Ofsted. 'When he was permanently excluded for the first time in year 1 the week before he was statemented, I knew he would prove them wrong. When he first came to TCES, he didn't trust any teacher, but they helped him regain trust, and he has smashed it now' - Parent. 'My child is very happy at TCES East London school, it is absolutely the right place for him.' - Parent. TCES Promise
