Shannon Whitehead/Student Learning Mentor
I have a strong passion and many years experience in supporting children with SEMH needs, as well as SEND. I’m dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing environment where every child can feel understood, valued, and capable of success. I believe every student has unique strengths and I am here to help them shine.

Darcy Birch/Senior Student Learning Mentor/DSL
Through my experience I have a in depth understanding of SEMH needs and strategies to support young people facing these challenges, students will not be able to work to their full potential if their SEMH is a barrier to their learning. My deep sense of empathy allows me to form meaningful and established relationships with the young people at Reset AP including their parents /carers. My dedication to this role will give our students the opportunity to thrive and be successful throughout their young lives and educational journey.

Karen Woods/Birch - OUR FOUNDER & CEO/DSL
I have many years experience working 1:1 with children, developing individual learning plans that reflect their unique needs and learning styles. I take pride in helping pupils build their confidence, overcome barriers, and reach their academic goals. Supporting a child’s progress, both emotionally and academically, is incredibly rewarding and continues to fuel my commitment to this vital area of education.
