Welcome to Konrad Halls Centre.
Welcome to Konrad Halls Centre, where we believe that a therapeutic and nurturing environment is the key to unlocking opportunities for every student. At Konrad Halls Centre, we prioritise not only academic achievements but also the social, emotional, and mental well-being of our students.
The Centre is the base for EdAct’s therapeutic practice led by Dr Jack Upton, the Trust’s Educational Psychologist. Under his direction we have a group of therapists whose work is focused on helping children to develop strategies in response to their social, emotional and mental health needs. The therapeutic team work with students at the Centre but also across the Trust.
The Centre is also the base of our alternative education programmes. We have a provision that enables a small group of children to have a specialised blend of learning programmes that includes work experience, college based and vocational courses, therapeutic intervention and courses leading to GCSE qualifications. This tailored approach recognises that every student has a distinct journey and so we have created an environment that enables students to benefit and thrive from working in a smaller setting, supported by qualified staff.
Students at the Centre will experience a caring and friendly environment, while high expectations are instilled in all learners to ensure that it is an environment where they feel safe and achieve success Alongside an individualised curriculum, the Centre will offer student’s a choice of pathways whereby they can flourish and achieve academically through either GCSE or vocational pathways.
We believe that education is the means for us to change our lives for better. We are proud to be able to offer Konrad Halls Centre to the community of the Borough of Enfield as every child deserves the right of a future full of possibilities.
We are grateful to the following who have provided support to EdAct to create and develop this provision:
- Metaswitch Networks
- Microsoft
- Artemis
- Plus two donors who wish to remain anonymous
