Brook Academy is a specialist SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) provision based in Gloucestershire. The academy supports young people who have faced challenges in mainstream education, often linked to behavioural, emotional, or social difficulties.
Brook Academy provides a structured, supportive, and therapeutic environment where students are encouraged to re-engage with learning, develop emotional resilience, and build positive relationships. The school takes a holistic approach, combining education with strong pastoral care to help students grow in confidence, improve their behaviour, and prepare for life beyond education.
