Dacorum Education Support Centre
Welcome to Dacorum Education Support Centre
We are a unique organisation that works with young people who, for one reason or another, are not in mainstream education. We support the individual and their family and work together to achieve appropriate outcomes and secure a positive way forward for the future.
Our two mantras 'Be the best you can be' and ' Inspiring Futures' are echoed in all our work with young people, working with them to overcome their barriers to learning, re-engage them and support them in their next steps.

"At DESC the young people are treated like adults not kids, they are respected by staff."
"The school is outstanding – My sons mental health has really improved and this has had a positive impact on family life."
"I can say from the bottom of my heart if it was not for all of you I would not have been able to make all the progress I had made.
"Your outstanding Prince's Trust provision has been a beacon for other centres/schools to emulate."
Staff have been very supportive throughout my child's time at DESC & they always encouraged my son to do his best to succeed!
