A safe, fun, inspiring
Place to learn
The Hub offers tailor-made programmes to suit every individual. Young people are encouraged to express themselves through a number of hands-on activities and qualifications. The Hub is a safe, fun and inspiring space where young people can develop employable life skills. We are pleased to announce that the Luccombe Hub is able to offer places on our bespoke two-year Post 16 programme.
THERAPEUTIC ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION
Learning, not teaching
We focus primarily on SEMH needs; we believe in learning, not teaching. Children who cannot access mainstream education due to trauma, anxiety and lack of social skills are able to come and access an alternative form of education with 1:1 support while still following the national curriculum through project-based work. We are licenced by Dorset Council to keep our animals for Education and Exhibition (Licence Number 9392).

TESTIMONIAL
Susana Ayala Family Worker
Family Help East & Purbeck Locality Dorset Council
“They will go to great lengths to get the best out of their children”
“I have worked along side Luccombe Hub whilst working in family help (Children’s services). I have found them to be very throughout in their approach, in regards to communication with children, family and family help. I have found them to be caring, nurturing and therapeutic with the children. It seems that they will go to great lengths to get the best out of their children and try to find solutions in the most difficult of situations, willing to try different methods, to adapt to each child.
When visiting the school, I found that all staff seem dedicated, friendly and I could see that they truly believe and care for the children; wanting to create the most calming and engaging environment to all who attends. I would recommend the school to families.”
