Riverston Children's Centre

RCC has been established by a joint venture between Tarbia and the Riverston Group. Tarbia is a locally-owned company active in the education sector. The Riverston Group was established following the success of Riverston School’s innovative, inclusive and bespoke curriculum to become an organisation that specialises in the establishment and management of high quality schools and diagnostic and early intervention children’s centres.

Our Centre provides outstanding expertise and support for children and their families from our multidisciplinary team offering in-depth assessment, diagnosis and therapy input as well as providing bespoke learning programmes in our early intervention nursery. We identify and work with a child’s individual and specific learning needs, and support their family in seeing their child reach their full potential and confidently develop and follow their ambitions.

Parents can sometimes struggle to find the right help for their child, often travelling to many appointments at a number of different locations. At the Riverston Children’s Centre we provide all the expertise and support needed in one place including an early intervention programme that offers a range of learning opportunities through play. The Riverston Children’s Centre provides speech and language therapy, occupational therapy and learning support together with access to visiting educational psychologists and paediatric neurologists.

At Riverston Children’s Centre we:

• Believe that all children can progress in their development and learning with the right level and type of support, and through making realistic and achievable targets that are functional and appropriate to their living and learning environment
• Are completely child focused and dedicated in supporting each child’s individual needs to enable them to overcome challenges to confidently develop and pursue their ambitions in life
• Provide support for families and schools in training, modelling of tasks and advice, working with them to develop solutions to fully support their children
• Use evidence based approaches throughout therapy and learning programmes

The RCC has been designed with the children’s safety in mind and with resources carefully chosen to develop each child’s potential and to ignite the child’s desire to learn and capacity to do so when provided with the right environment and appropriate materials.
