Welcome

Personal Statement – Nick Reed, CEO

​

As a team, we have worked tirelessly to develop our provision to meet the needs and challenges identified by local authorities and schools within the Tees Valley. At the heart of our service are children and young people, and it is for them that we strive to deliver high-quality, cost-effective, and fully accessible provision.

​

Reintegreat is founded on the belief that every child and young person should have access to education, regardless of the challenges they face. Education has the power to transform lives, to unlock potential, and to inspire young people to dream beyond their circumstances.

Growing up in one of the most deprived areas of Middlesbrough, I experienced first-hand the barriers that many children encounter. Those experiences have shaped my values and my understanding of the importance of positive role models in a young person’s life. I know the lasting impact that the right support and encouragement can make to a child’s future.

​

Reintegreat was developed to reach children and young people who were finding it difficult to thrive in a mainstream environment. Our ethos is simple but powerful: with the right help and support, barriers to education can be removed. Over the years, we have built a service that we are extremely proud of, one that is rooted in passion, commitment, and the tangible differences we have made to the lives of the young people we serve.

​

We pride ourselves on building strong, meaningful relationships with local authorities, schools, parents, carers, and most importantly, the young people themselves. It is this investment in people that truly sets us apart. By balancing educational engagement with social experiences, we bring a flexible and responsive approach to learning, ensuring that every child and young person has the opportunity to succeed, whatever their background.

​

Reintegreat is already working in partnership with schools and academies across the region and is recognised on the Alternative Provision Framework for Middlesbrough, Stockton, Redcar and Cleveland, and North Yorkshire. By continuing to work collaboratively, I firmly believe we can make a lasting difference to the lives of children and young people across Teesside and beyond.
