Gloucester House is unique. We are a unit that combines an independant special school and a specialist clinical team working together under one roof. The staff includes teachers, teaching assistance, child psychiatrists, child psychotherapists, a social worker and an educational psychologist. We provide education and therapeutic services for up to 16 primary and early secondary aged children with emotional, behavioural and psychiatric difficulties.
Formerly known as the Tavistock Mulberry Bush Day Unit, in February 2007 the Day Unit school achieved its own DCSF number, which means it now operates as a recognised independent school. In the light of this we are no longer affiliated to the Mulberry Bush in Oxford and changed our name to Gloucester House, the Tavistock Children’s Day Unit.
Who Do We Work With?
We work with children who have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties and their families and carers. We also work with the professionals who are involved with the families.
All of our children currently have statements of Special Educational Needs.
