Ethos and Values

Our ethos and values underpin everything we do

At My Oasis we recognise the value that each young person brings, with our own values underpinning everything we do. Diversity and individuality are encouraged as we understand that every young person is unique and has the right to reach their full potential through education.

We aim to provide academic and specialist therapeutic support to enable our students to have a positive experience of education and facilitate re-engagement in their education. Through the evidence-based interventions offered, young people develop the necessary skills to prepare them to become successful members of society and live worthwhile and fulfilling lives.

We approach this through the 5 key values we adhere to, and which underpin everything we do at My Oasis:

Therapeutic

My Oasis provides a therapeutic, supportive and relaxing environment which facilitates the social and emotional development of all the young people who attend with us. This is done in various ways, including 1:1 therapy and mentoring sessions, the skills-based groups and through the PHSE Curriculum we deliver.

Inclusive

My Oasis provides an inclusive environment for all students across varying identities, ensuring each young person feels valued, respected, included, represented and heard. This is why regular feedback is collected from students on both a formal and informal basis, with student voice being at the heart of what we do.

Collaborative

My Oasis staff work collectively in partnership with mainstream school staff, parents and guardians, external agencies, and most importantly the young people themselves. This is with the shared goal of improving outcomes for all students who attend a placement with us, being based on the belief that working collaboratively ensures the needs of each young person are met holistically.

Evidence-based

At My Oasis we make sure all therapeutic support and interventions delivered to students are evidence- based and supported by up-to-date academic research in psychology and neuroscience, with us having an elective range of psychotherapies and counselling approaches available for young people to access. We make sure we are innovative in our approaches, ensuring the therapeutic approach provided is in line with each student’s individual needs.

Compassionate

At My Oasis we have a commitment to providing care which is compassionate and understanding to many young people in the greatest of need. We therefore do not only show sympathy and concern for others, but we act on this by helping the young people we support overcome any difficulties they may be facing.
