At Education My Life Matters we are committed to providing supportive education dedicated to assisting students back into mainstream learning. Many of our learners have not had success in their education elsewhere. We support our Learners to build trust and desire to learn by offering wrap-around pastoral care.
Staff at EMLM are confident and skilled in building positive relationships that help to break down barriers, build self-esteem and challenge disaffection. We respect that all our Learners are individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds and life experiences.
We passionately believe that by assisting our Learners to overcome their personal barriers they will be best placed to access meaningful education, develop their aspirations and become contributing members of society. We work closely in partnership with schools, external agencies and parent/carers to secure the best possible outcomes for our Learners.
Education is what remains after you have forgotten what you learned in school. Education My Life Matters is a Lewisham based Independent School and Alternative Provision with objective to reconnect, reengage and empower the learner who could possibly be at risk of becoming the subject of permanent exclusion. We primarily work with learners in Key Stage 3 & 4.
