“It takes a village to raise a child.”

After meeting with the inspirational Jade Neivens-Brown at Provision Plus+, we were minded of this timeless proverb. We left the meeting thinking how co-operating would help our complementary services provide the support (technical and professional) to ensure young people who are educated outside of the mainstream get what they need, and frankly deserve. Through their robust quality assurance process Provision Plus+, are fostering an environment where every student has the opportunity to flourish. We provide the technical background to ensure that those involved with the young person can act fast when a student does not attend, and assess the effectiveness of provisions by looking at the recorded outcomes for young people. We both focus on the outcomes of young people ensuring that the tools and quality environments needed are in place.

We are passionate about helping students who do not fit a one-size-fits-all school system to reach their potential. DCPro Alternative Provision Attendance provides a real time technical architecture for documentation, timetabling, attendance, targets and finance, meaning the village around the child of tutors, providers, schools and local authorities can utilise their time getting the best provision for children instead of spending hours chasing and collating the information they need. This technical backdrop enables professionals like Jade Neivens-Brown and her Provisions Plus+ network to ensure that the provision that is provided is fit for purpose and exceeds expected government standards.

We are happy to partner with ProvisionPlus+ for any quality assurance you may need when accessing or providing Alternative Provision!
