A Structured Wellbeing Programme for Home-Educated Children
The Home Education Wellbeing & Social Programme is a structured, small-group pilot designed specifically for children who are educated outside of mainstream school settings.
This programme focuses on reducing social isolation, strengthening emotional resilience, and building practical life skills within a calm, professionally facilitated environment
It is not a classroom replacement. It is a community-based wellbeing programme that provides purposeful structure, peer interaction, and confidence-building experiences.


Who It’s For
This programme is suitable for home-educated children aged 7–14 who would benefit from structured social engagement and wellbeing-focused development
It may be particularly helpful for children who:
-
Experience social isolation
-
Need support building confidence and friendships
-
Have mild additional needs or anxiety
-
Thrive outside traditional classroom environments
All sessions are delivered in small groups to ensure safety, engagement and personalised support.
What the Programme Delivers
Each session is structured and purposeful, with clear developmental outcomes.
Children will engage in:
-
Social communication activities
-
Emotional regulation and resilience development
-
Practical life skills sessions
-
Teamwork and cooperative projects
-
Community awareness and confidence-building experiences
Wellbeing sits at the core of every session. We create a calm, inclusive and supportive environment where children can build friendships, strengthen self-esteem and develop positive social habits
