About this employer
Blooming Tree ABA School was the first structured behavioural setting in the UK specialising in early intervention for children with learning difficulties, SEMH (Social, Emotional & Mental Health issues), Autism, and related developmental disorders. With over 20 years of experience implementing ABA programmes, we provide a structured, multidisciplinary approach through Behaviour Analysts, Behavioural Technicians, Occupational Therapists, and Speech & Language Therapists. Our 1:1 clinical ABA treatment empowers children to develop functional skills for greater independence at home and school. Our success inspired the creation of Blooming Tree Primary School and Blooming Tree Pre-Preparatory School, extending our ethos of innovative teaching methods to older children. We focus on self-awareness, self-esteem, independent living skills, and advanced social interaction, while also providing parent training to help families support their children effectively.
