The Welwyn and Hatfield Hub is based at Swallow Dell Primary School in Welwyn Garden City and provides support for primary children in DSPL5 (Welwyn and Hatfield) who are experiencing challenges in their mainstream schools due to their social, emotional and mental health needs.

We are a nurturing provision with a team of experienced and highly skilled staff, who work both within The Hub and on outreach in the local area.

Local schools can refer directly to us and we offer a tiered approach, working with teachers, SENCos, support staff and pupils directly to overcome the issues causing a barrier to learning.

Our aim is to support school in maintain pupils in their mainstream settings and to avoid the need for exclusions. For some pupils, following outreach a place in The Hub maybe appropriate. We can offer a purpose built facility with curriculums tailored to the complex needs of the pupils. Placements in The Hub are short term and the aim is always to re-integrate them into their ‘home schools’ with a short term package of support.

Initial contact with The Hub is made either by calling 01701-339079 or by emailing welhathub@swallowdell.herts.sch.uk.
