Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer online or in‑person sessions Support can be delivered in person for calm, structured one‑to‑one sessions, or online for older pupils or those who benefit from a quieter, more private space. The format is chosen in partnership with families and schools, based on what feels safest, most accessible, and most effective for the child.
What does a typical session look like Sessions are calm, predictable, and child‑led. They are gentle, encouraging, and paced according to the child’s comfort and readiness. Pupils are never rushed, pressured, or overwhelmed. The focus is on emotional safety, steady progress, and creating a learning environment where the child feels understood and able to succeed.
Do you use rewards or sanctions No. Inclusive Minds Plus uses a relational, trauma‑informed approach that does not rely on stickers, charts, punishments, or reward systems. Support is rooted in understanding, connection, and helping pupils develop internal regulation rather than external compliance.
How do you keep information safe Information is handled with great care and in line with GDPR requirements. No data is stored on personal devices, and no long‑term records are kept. Any notes are brief, factual, and shared only with parents or schools when appropriate. Full details are outlined in the Privacy Policy, ensuring transparency and accountability at every stage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can parents sit in during sessions Parents are welcome to remain nearby if this helps their child feel settled and secure. For some pupils, having a familiar adult close by provides reassurance and supports smoother engagement. Other pupils prefer a little more independence once they feel comfortable, and this is respected equally. Decisions are made collaboratively, based on what feels safest, least intrusive, and most supportive for the child’s emotional wellbeing and learning needs. The aim is always to create a calm, predictable environment where the child can focus, regulate, and make steady progress.
How do we get started Getting started is straightforward. Families can arrange a free initial consultation, which provides a calm, unhurried opportunity to discuss the child’s strengths, needs, interests, and any barriers to learning. This conversation helps identify the type of support that will be most beneficial and ensures that the approach is a good fit for the child and family. From there, a regular session time can be agreed, and support begins at a pace that feels comfortable and achievable for the pupil.
