About Hawthorn Education

Hawthorn Education is an independent education provider dedicated to offering a specialised teaching service to young people who have difficulty accessing or maintaining mainstream education provision.  Large enough to make a difference and small enough to care.

We provide education throughout the North West and beyond, working in partnership with local authorities, schools, CRUs and healthcare trusts nationwide.

We excel in raising attainment and promoting the wellbeing of young people with complex and challenging social, emotional and educational needs.

Our professional teachers have the extensive experience and specialist knowledge required to work with young people, including those with special educational needs, with the aim of maximising potential.
