Welcome to our Nurture Class...

At Roch School, we are proud to offer a dedicated Nurture Class, designed to provide pupils with the time, space and support they need to flourish.

The Nurture Class is a calm, welcoming and supportive environment where children are given the opportunity to develop their social, emotional and learning skills in small groups. This unique provision helps pupils to build confidence, resilience and independence, enabling them to thrive both in and out of the classroom.

Children in our Nurture Class receive individualised support that is carefully tailored to their needs. Within this calming space, they feel valued, listened to and supported, which allows them to grow in confidence and self-belief. They learn essential skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving and self-regulation, all while developing a stronger sense of emotional wellbeing.

The focus of the Nurture Class is to celebrate each child’s achievements, no matter how big or small, so that they develop a positive self-image. This, in turn, provides them with the strong foundations they need to succeed across the curriculum and beyond.

Our Nurture Class is more than just additional support—it is a place where children can truly grow, develop and shine. By placing wellbeing at the heart of learning, we enable pupils to return to their mainstream classes happier, more confident and enthusiastic about taking on new challenges.

Parents often tell us how much of a difference the Nurture Class has made for their child, both in school and at home. We are delighted to see children leaving this provision not only with new skills, but with a renewed sense of confidence, resilience and joy in their learning.
