Who we are

A small provision with a big heart.

Gateways Education and Wellbeing Ltd provides alternative provision and personalised education for children and young people who need a different way to access learning. We operate across our two sites in Keighley (Steeton and Haworth).

We work with families, schools and local authorities to support students experiencing barriers such as anxiety, emotionally based school avoidance, sensory overwhelm and unmet special educational needs. Our small provision combines teaching with support for wellbeing, helping learners develop confidence and work towards meaningful goals.

Programmes draw on our Nurture, Curriculum and Reintegration pathways. We begin by understanding the individual and agree support around their needs, interests and aspirations. Alongside our daytime provision, we offer tuition and Gateways Explorers holiday and after school provision.

Find what you need

You know your child best.

Parents and carers can contact us directly about tuition, clubs or possible education support. You don't need a diagnosis or EHCP to start a conversation.

Our three pathways

Students can move between the pathways as needs emerge and change.

Pupils may begin on any pathway of support and move between all three. Support is blended and reviewed regularly to enable safe progression towards curriculum learning and/or reintegration.

Getting started

A shared understanding before day one.

  1. Talk to us

    Families, schools and local authorities can contact us to discuss a possible placement.

  2. Get to know the learner

    We explore strengths, needs, current education and intended outcomes, then consider suitability.

  3. Plan together

    An IEP, crisis passport, risk assessment and timetable are agreed with everyone involved.

  4. Begin & review

    Reviews after the first day, first week and 14 days, then regular reviews as confidence grows.

Director's welcome

At Gateways, I want children to feel understood and able to take their next step in education.
