SEMH Provision

Social, emotional and mental health provision delivered by trained specialists.

Who it's for

Young people with SEMH needs, including those with attachment, developmental trauma or self-regulation difficulties.

How it works

Every tutor on our SEMH team is trained in trauma-informed practice, attachment-aware approaches and de-escalation. Provision is wrapped with regular reflective supervision and senior safeguarding oversight. Note: Parity Education does not provide therapy or clinical mental health treatment — where this is needed, we work alongside the young person's CAMHS or other clinical team.
