ALTERNATIVE PROVISION PROVIDER
Alternative Provision for Schools
Personalised education, academic intervention and flexible tuition for pupils requiring additional support.
Brainhub partners with schools, academies and local authorities to deliver high-quality Alternative Provision for students who require a personalised educational approach. Our experienced tutors help pupils re-engage with learning, build confidence and achieve meaningful academic progress through flexible one-to-one and small group tuition.
Supporting students to re-engage with education
Every student deserves the opportunity to succeed. Whether a pupil is experiencing anxiety, behavioural challenges, school refusal, medical needs, SEND, exclusion or disrupted education, our Alternative Provision programmes provide structured academic support that complements each school’s wider pastoral and safeguarding approach.
We work collaboratively with schools to help students remain engaged in education while progressing towards positive academic outcomes — as an education partner, not simply a tuition supplier.

Our approach
Every Alternative Provision programme begins with understanding the individual student’s needs. We work alongside schools to identify academic gaps, establish realistic learning goals, rebuild confidence, monitor progress and prepare students for successful reintegration or examinations. Rather than delivering generic tuition, every programme is tailored to the student’s circumstances.
Safeguarding
Safeguarding underpins everything we do. Brainhub® tutors are enhanced DBS checked, trained in safeguarding awareness, committed to maintaining safe learning environments and able to work collaboratively with designated safeguarding leads.
We understand the importance of communication, confidentiality and professional standards when supporting vulnerable learners.
Why early intervention matters
Research consistently shows that pupils experiencing prolonged absence or disengagement are at greater risk of falling behind academically. Timely intervention helps students rebuild confidence, maintain curriculum progress, reduce learning gaps, improve readiness for reintegration and prepare successfully for examinations. Our programmes are designed to provide continuity of education during periods of disruption.
