The Tubers Difference

What sets Tubers apart is our creative, hands-on approach to learning that’s specifically designed for neurodivergent young people. In a high-spec, emotionally supportive environment, students reconnect with learning through digital media and build real-world skills.

Social Interaction

Unlike purely online learning, our centre-based approach encourages meaningful social interaction. Students work collaboratively on creative projects, developing crucial communication and teamwork skills in a supportive environment.

Real World Skills

Our curriculum teaches industry-relevant digital media skills that prepare students for future education or employment opportunities. Many of our students discover passions and talents that lead to further education or career paths in creative industries.

Reintegration

We don’t just provide a temporary solution – our ultimate goal is to help support students to develop the confidence and skills they need to either return to mainstream education or progress to appropriate further education setting or placement.

HOW ALTERNATIVE PROVISION WORKS...

We begin with a consultation to understand each student’s needs and a personalised plan is created around their skills and  interests in digital media.

Students attend structured sessions at our centres. Regular reviews ensure support stays aligned with their development.

HEAR FROM OUR PARENTS...

At Tubers, students who once refused to attend school are now re-engaged and excited to learn.
