Chances Educational Support Services is a vibrant alternative provision dedicated to early intervention for students facing challenges in mainstream education.

Chances works across two models:

.EBSA placements where students are on roll at Chances and receive bespoke support to rebuild engagement and attendance
Chances have consistently delivered excellent results. The staff are a mixture of quality teachers and highly trained youth workers, allowing us to focus on education, but also offer a holistic wrap-around approach to the care we provide. Students are at the heart of every decision we make, fostering enthusiasm, confidence, and a passion for learning. After time at our provision, with the support of our great teachers and skilled youth workers, most students reintegrate back into their mainstream school successfully.

★ Resilience
