Early Intervention Places
For some children, attendance at school may be impacted by health issues including anxiety and mental health problems. If concerns are not addressed at an early stage, they can affect progress, outcomes and the transition process to secondary school.
The Children’s Hospital School have a range of early interventions for schools including short-term commissioned placements for pupils at either our Leicester or Hinckley hub.
The Magpie Learning Centre (Leicester) – for Years 7 to 10
The Phoenix Learning Centre (Hinckley) – for Years 7 to 10
The hubs are open to all schools including those from Leicester, Leicestershire, Rutland, Warwickshire, Staffordshire and surrounding areas.
