Birch Wood College Students Shine at Official Opening of The Treehouse 🎀

Students from Birch Wood College demonstrated exceptional professionalism and teamwork this week as they provided catering for the official opening of The Treehouse, primary autism provision.
The event welcomed the Mayor and several distinguished guests, giving our young people a valuable opportunity to apply their hospitality skills in a real-world, high-profile setting. From preparing refreshments to delivering warm, attentive service, the students approached every task with confidence and pride.
Visitors praised both the quality of the catering and the students’ respectful, engaging approach. Staff across the Trust commented on how well the students represented Birch Wood College, reflecting our core values of Empowering Students for Independent Lives, Aspire and Achieve, and Engage and Interact.
The opening of The Treehouse marks an exciting milestone for specialist education in the area, and we are delighted that our students played such a meaningful role in the celebration. Their contribution helped make the event truly memorable.

Last week the Herons were invited to Little Springers in Melton. The Herons had a wonderful afternoon exploring a variety of gymnastic apparatus and developing their gymnastics skills.
Thank you to Melton & Belvoir School Sport and Physical Activity Network & Little Springers Gymnastics for hosting a wonderful event.

“I am so happy with how my son has progressed in the school setting over a short period of time. A big ‘thank you’ for everyone’s help and especially for their exceptional support. I know that he will blossom throughout the school setting. Thanks again!”

“The primary school said under no circumstances could he go back after Christmas. Sending him to Birch Wood is the best thing I ever did, I couldn’t be more pleased. He is calmer, telling me about things he enjoys at school. Everybody has noticed such a big change in him, all of my family appreciate everything you are doing, it has changed our lives.”

“My son is really happy, he’s started playing again and back to the old child. Everything is really positive and he is much happier when he comes home. The unit has been really positive for him”

“I am happy with the new assessment and tracking system. My son seems very happy at school and appears to be making good progress. The teachers seemed very knowledgeable about my son’s abilities and when to push him. I would like to comment on his next IEP before it is finalised.”

“The provision has been outstanding in every way and the staff are brilliant with strategies to ensure progress is made in all areas of my son’s school life. We couldn’t ask for anything more!”

“I was very impressed with how positive ad enthusiastic all staff were tonight (as always). Especially impressed with all the efficient, colour coded information on my sons progress and it’s equivalent grade in GCSE.”
