What We Do
Most, if not all, young people attending the Kings Dam Project will have experienced learning difficulties within a variety of settings. Within our project our vision is to deliver a personalised education package for each child. This is combined with our therapeutic natural environment.
All YP are on a 1:1 ratio with extremely experienced staff.

Subjects Covered At The Kings Dam Project
We offer personalised alternative education specific to a YP's interests.
These can range from curriculum based learning in our learning centre, local history, conservation and the environment, swimming, music, DT, cooking, cycling, horticulture, photography, health and sports, arts and crafts. Really the list goes on and on and changes each term. Each term we also focus on calendar events and celebrations.
The activities generate and provide us with the therapeutic platform to focus on the young persons Personal, Emotional, Social development (PESD) and the desired outcomes set out by the referring party.
Our Onsite Spaces
On site we have a polytunnel, workshop and learning centre as well as outdoor therapeutic spaces. We do go offsite to specific locations within the local area to enhance the young people’s life skills, experience and learning.
All external providers and venues are risk assessed prior to visiting. Parental/Carer consent is required. We offer provision on a termly basis; 0930-1430. Breakfast and lunch are included.

Testimonials
My son absolutely loved coming to Kings Dam Project. He learned so much and really thrived from attending. All the staff are so kind and caring. They really make such a difference and bring great quality to the children’s experience. I’m so thankful to all the staff. They really helped my little boy. Any child able to go, is lucky to attend in my opinion. I’d send my boy back in a heartbeat! Thank you so much!
