Qualifications
In children’s residential care, qualifications should do more than tick boxes - they should transform practice, deepen understanding, and honour the incredible work that happens every day in our homes.
We don’t just deliver qualifications - we reimagine them.
Our Level 3 and Level 5 diplomas for residential childcare have been thoughtfully redesigned with the real-world needs of children, teams, and homes at their heart. We’ve shifted away from generic delivery to create something more relevant, relational, and reflective - because working in residential care is unlike any other role in social care, and it deserves training that recognises that.
Every unit, every conversation, and every assessment is grounded in trauma-informed principles and compassionate, meaningful care. We bring lived experience, sector-leading knowledge, and a deep commitment to relational practice into every learning journey. Whether you’re just beginning your path in residential care or stepping into leadership, our qualifications are practical, purposeful, and fully embedded in the daily rhythms, challenges, and joys of the work.
We believe qualifications should empower, not overwhelm - and that learning should feel like part of the work, not apart from it. That’s why we build strong, trusting tutor relationships, offer flexible, responsive support, and always keep the wellbeing of children and the confidence of practitioners at the centre of our work.
We are an Approved Highfield Training Centre
