About our centre

Northfields Education Centre supports students at Key Stage 4 who have social, emotional, medical and/or mental health needs.  Students are referred to Northfields via the Permanently Excluded and Vulnerable Pupils Panel (PEVP).  Students who attend Northfields continue to be supported by either CAMHS or the Medical Professional who supported the initial application to Northfields.  All students at Northfields are dual registered with their mainstream school, as the aim is for students to return where possible and certainly to retain links.
