We provide a range of specialist assessments, which allow us to develop an integrated plan that will work in harmony with the academic and emotional wellbeing strands.

River Tees Hospital School gives every learner the chance to be the best that they can be. This is achieved through the removal of barriers to learning, and the delivery of personalised educational programmes which lead to valuable and valid qualifications.

We value the professional relationships between staff and learners, but equally ensure strong collaborative partnership work with parents, carers, trustees, external providers and the wider community, to ensure learners achieve their potential.
