Player Ready:Level‑Up Alternative Provision in Suffolk
Flexible SEND Alternative Provision for Suffolk Learners (Ages 7–25+)
Player Ready provides flexible, high-engagement Alternative Provision for children and young people across Suffolk who are not currently in school. We offer personalised EOTAS (Education Other Than At School) packages for learners with complex needs, including those with SEND, EHCPs, or long-term school absence.
Our online service supports learners from the comfort and safety of home, delivered by trauma-informed mentors who understand how to engage anxious, neurodiverse, or school-refusing young people through creative, tech-led sessions.
Supporting Learners Across Suffolk
We already work with families in the region and can begin delivery immediately. We are actively supporting learners in:

- Experience anxiety, trauma, sensory needs, PDA, or SEMH challenges
- Are medically unfit for school, or are long-term refusers
