WELCOME
School doesn’t work for everyone and that’s okay.
At Beacon, we support young people who feel overwhelmed, left out, or stuck in education that doesn’t fit.
Whether they’ve stopped attending, struggle with anxiety or autism, or are navigating school-related trauma, we help them reconnect with learning.
If you have any questions or specific requests, please do get in touch.
What We Do
We offer trauma-informed, child-centered alternative education for ages 7–16 (Y3-11) in and around Exeter.
Our learners come from a wide range of backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common:
mainstream school just isn’t working at the moment.
Our services
Results:
We have seen huge progress in our students' academic and emotional achievements. They started with a history of non-attendance at school, traumatised by their experiences, sensory overload and feeling of failure. They now have improved attendance and engagement with us, enjoy their learning time, which is filled with enthusiasm and laughter, and they have developed resilience. They are already proud of what they have achieved and the progress they are making.
