Why Support Us

At Solihull Alternative Provision Multi Academy Trust (SAPMAT), we provide a vital educational lifeline for young people who cannot thrive in mainstream schools. Our students face complex and unique challenges, and without our specialised support, they risk being left behind. By supporting SAPMAT, you are investing in a future where every child, regardless of circumstance, has access to the education, care, and opportunities they deserve.

The Unique Nature of Our Alternative Provision

Unlike traditional schools, SAPMAT academies are specifically designed to cater to students with high and complex needs. Many of our learners have experienced significant barriers to education, including:

• Social, emotional, and mental health difficulties
• Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)
• Adverse childhood experiences and trauma
• Exclusion or risk of exclusion from mainstream education

We offer a highly personalised approach, providing small class sizes, specialist interventions, and tailored pathways that equip students with academic success, personal resilience, and essential life skills.

 Meeting Needs That Others Cannot

For many of our students, SAPMAT is not just a place of learning—it is a lifeline! A safe and supportive environment where they can rebuild confidence, trust, and aspirations. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to:

• Deliver individualised learning plans that respect each student's unique needs and potential.
• Offer therapeutic and pastoral support to help students overcome trauma and challenges.
• Provide vocational and employability skills to create future pathways beyond education.

A Community Effort: How You Can Help

Your support allows us to expand our reach, develop new programmes, and continue delivering specialist interventions that change lives. Whether you are a business looking to partner with us, a donor wishing to contribute, or an advocate for inclusive education, you can make a lasting difference.

Together, we can ensure that no child is left behind. Join us in shaping a brighter future for the young people who need us
