--- title: "Balanced System - Accreditation 2025" url: "https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news/2025-09-17-balanced-system-accreditation-2025" school: "St Nicholas School" --- # Balanced System - Accreditation 2025 ![](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/images/news/images(2).png) 17 September 2025 ### The Balanced System ® The school has recently been awarded as a ‘Centre of Excellence’ for the Balanced System®, which we are immensely proud of. ‘The Balanced System® is a whole system strategic approach to supporting children and people with a whole range of needs, that has primarily come out of work in the area of speech, language and communication but has evolved to be used to consider other therapy areas for children and young people, including occupational therapy, physiotherapy, CAMHS, holistic SEND support and most recently tests of concept with some adult populations.’ Therefore, for St. Nicholas school this means that we have been recognised for our provision to support the development of pupils' Speech, Language and Communication needs across the school. We will be celebrating this achievement by hosting an event in term 2 that you will all be invited to - so look out for that. ![A certificate on a table AI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/images/news/b28c6d20825d0d953d0b00e1853a58fe.png) [![](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/imagecache/100x100c/news/kent-police-logo-two-line-colour-transparent-white-text.png)](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news/2025-07-17-summer-notices-kent-police-2025) Previous ### [Summer Notices - Kent Police 2025](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news/2025-07-17-summer-notices-kent-police-2025) [![](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/imagecache/100x100c/news/3259cb7e39b44e7c831f5c1e11b47b3f.jpg)](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news/2025-09-19-internet-safety-bulletin-sep-2025) Next ### [INTERNET SAFETY BULLETIN - Sep 2025](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news/2025-09-19-internet-safety-bulletin-sep-2025) ### News and Events - [Term Dates](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/termdates) - [News](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/events) - [Calendar](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/calendar) - ![Every Moment Matters](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/images/partners/every_moment_matters_logo_(9).jpg) - ![Togetherness](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/images/partners/togetherness_Gold_logo(1).png) - ![School Games 2026](https://files.schudio.com/stnicholas/images/partners/Gold_Logo300x300trans.jpg) ##### Location Holm Oak Close Canterbury Kent CT1 3JJ ##### Contact Us 01227 464316 © Copyright 2013–2026 St Nicholas School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://st-nicholas.kent.sch.uk/img/logo/dark.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
