About Us

We offer school and treatment, where school is integrated with skills training and therapy. The operation is characterized by an unpretentious collaboration among various professions. In addition to educators, we have behavioral scientists, social workers, and family therapists, who together with school staff provide students with support in their development. The school caters to children and adolescents in grades 4-9 with extensive needs for special support. The students we encounter often have social, psychosocial, or neuropsychiatric issues, and many have a long history of school absenteeism. To help these young people achieve a functioning school experience, we work with small-scale operations, high staff density, enhanced student social support, and individually tailored programs based on each student's conditions and needs. We have a systemic and salutogenic perspective where the focus is on working with the whole and building on what works. Our goal is to provide a context where all students can have a chance to succeed based on their conditions.
