Mission Statement

Our aim is to ensure that every young person referred to Education 1st receives the necessary level of nurturing and support to be able to develop their ability to progress in the following areas:

• Managing Myself • Resilience • Communication

• Relationships • My Emotions • My Safety and Well Being

We offer our students bespoke mentoring and educational support. Through offsite social and emotional support, our young people develop the skills they need to progress and re-engage with learning.

At Education 1st, the safety, wellbeing, and protection of every child and young person in our care is our highest priority.

We are fully committed to creating and maintaining a secure, supportive, and nurturing environment where all children and young adults feel safe, valued, and respected. We believe that every young person has the right to learn and grow free from harm. We take our responsibility to safeguard them extremely seriously. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility - and at Education 1st, it is at the heart of our culture, placing the needs of the child at the centre of everything we do.

If you have a safeguarding concern, please email the safeguarding team at safeguarding@education-1st.org.uk. This inbox is monitored Monday to Friday, 7:30am–5:00pm.

The Education 1st Safeguarding Team has completed the Opration Encompass training to support early intervention safeguarding in partnership with the police.
