Summary
Loader Monteith with Studio SJM have completed a new vocational learning centre for the Harmeny Education Trust on the Scottish charity’s 35-acre woodland estate in Balerno. The Harmeny Learning Hub provides a safe and uplifting learning environment for students with complex additional support needs due to early years trauma and adversity.
Their curated and holistic approach to education helps children to discover the joy of learning and leading fulfilling lives. At the core of Harmeny’s ethos lies their commitment to personalised learning, where education is tailored to individual needs. Their skilled and experienced staff offer high-quality teaching and learning opportunities. Set within a wooded environment provides a rich outdoor learning resource, fostering physical and emotional wellbeing, confidence, environmental awareness and lifelong skills.
Transitioning to and from Harmeny is carefully facilitated to ensure continuity and support. Their ongoing care and learning services extend support to young people until the age of 18. Harmeny is also known for their ongoing contact and maintaining relationships beyond their time at the school. Their care and dedication to their students sets them apart.
