Transforming education, one ripple at a time.

Too many young people are falling through the cracks of our current education system. Our vision is simple, an education system where everyone can flourish.

Dr Alice Carvalho
Founder

The world has changed, but education hasn’t. It’s time for a new approach.

We believe that schools need to be spaces where individual differences are celebrated, where everyone is free to be themselves, and where safety, belonging and individuality thrive.

A growing number of ‘square pegs’ are falling through the cracks of the current school system. Ripple Grove works with local authorities, schools and parents to develop creative solutions for young people who cannot attend school.

Curriculum Development

Collaborate with us to develop a progressive curriculum that gives young people the skills they need for their future.

EBSNA and EOTAS

We help local authorities, schools and parents to develop creative solutions for young people who are too anxious to attend school.

The Parent Harbour®

We are building a village for parents of square pegs so you have a safe harbour with the resources you need.

Education That Responds to Human Needs

Having worked in education for over 20 years, we believe it’s time for a complete transformation of education and it’s purpose. We work at different levels to empower families, schools and local authorities to create a better education system that enables all young people to flourish.

Support for EBSNA

We specialise in supporting young people experiencing Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance and those accessing Education Otherwise Than in School (EOTIS / EOTAS) due to mental health or neurodiversity needs.
