Who We Support & Admissions
We support children with a range of needs, including SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs), Autism (ASD), behavioural challenges, and learning delays.
A formal diagnosis is not required for a child to be considered for placement. We focus on understanding each child’s individual needs and whether our provision is the right fit.
Blooming Tree is a specialist primary school offering tailored support within a structured and personalised learning environment.
We accept EHCP-funded placements in London through Local Authorities, for children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
We also offer private placements, where an EHCP is not required. Due to the specialist nature of our provision — including high staff ratios and individualised ABA programmes — fees are significant, and families should be prepared for this level of investment.
We prioritise placements for younger children (typically under the age of 7), as early intervention allows us to achieve the most meaningful progress.
For older children, placements may be considered where they have already developed foundational learning and behavioural skills that enable them to benefit from our programme.
We place strong importance on parent collaboration. Parents are expected to actively participate in their child’s ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis) programme, working closely with the school to ensure consistency between home and school. This partnership is key to achieving the best outcomes for each child.
