Our Impact

Thanks to the support we receive from all across Sussex, we are able to help hundreds of children and families each year

In 2024-25, 46% of our practitioners’ time was spent supporting families with their children’s educational needs.

This is half as much again as last year, reflecting the ever growing demand for support in school to ensure every child can reach their full potential. We’ve seen a 5% increase in families supported, including a massive 58% increase of children supported from the previous year, with a majority still in nursery and primary school.
