🌟 Celebrating Progress! 🌟

In just his second week at our Post-16 Academy, a learner has achieved so much:

✅ Followed step-by-step instructions with confidence
✅ Used weighing scales and incorporated maths skills
✅ Stayed focused throughout the activity
After baking his shortbread biscuits, he shared them with someone supported under our 3D Project.
We even featured his recipe in the Circles Network Newsletter.

Today was the Day!

We were thrilled to welcome our very first learner to the Circles Network Post-16 Academy!

This marked the beginning of a new chapter filled with growth, opportunity, and empowerment.

Here’s to the journey ahead!

Circles Network are delighted to have officially launched our newest project in Peterborough.

Alongside our Post 16 project - Beyond 16 - we are offering alternative education for students aged 11-16 in a beautiful and calm setting in the city centre.

We aim to provide support and education in hair, beauty, photography and other accreditations alongside experts in the industry.

We specialise in supporting neurodivergent young people who are struggling to maintain their education in a usual school setting. We operate from a trauma informed and person centred approach to learning, helping young people to realise their strengths and supporting them to overcome their challenges whilst gaining valuable experience and training in a working hair and beauty salon.

We have partnered with the new owners of Burghley Academy and were delighted to welcome visitors to our opening evening alongside Liza, Hannah and their team of amazing stylists and therapists yesterday.
