About Trax
At TRAX we aim to develop the skills and qualities of students who have been reported by their teachers to be at risk of failure in their education due to difficulties with their emotional, social or behavioural development. The staff provide a nurturing therapeutic environment in which they can deliver social skills programmes, address low self esteem, confidence and emotional literacy skills in a small group nurturing environment.
Outreach
All young people receive regular outreach while at Trax.
Keyqorkers work with students and staff in their own school for approximately 1 hour per week. . Outreach continues for approximately 6-8 weeks after students have left the Trax base in order to support their transition back into full- time education.
In outreach sessions students may receive individualised support to help them achieve their targets; for monitoring and reviewing; for counselling sessions if appropriate; or for in class support.
In Outreach sessions student receive appropriate levels of support to help them achieve their targets. This may include a combination of in-class support and one to one outreach work. Outreach sessions may also be used for work in schools to support staff using the TRAX TIPS FOR TEACHERS pack.
Teachers can let us know how useful you find the trax Tips by emailing us at ccc.trax@ntlp.org.uk
All through the young persons involvement with Trax we will keep in regular contact with both home and school. We will organise at least two meetings with the participation of both home and school and write a report at the end of the intervention. Follow up contact will be made after six months in order to find out how the student is progressing.
