For AP providers and organisations
A practice systemyou can actually run
The WILD Framework, The WILD Portal and The WILD Academy were built inside a working provision, not a consultancy. Together they give an organisation a defined methodology, the infrastructure to record it and the training to sustain it.
The Framework, Portal and Academy are delivered by Wild Minds Pro Limited, the arm of Wild Minds that licenses the practice system to other providers and organisations.
One system, three parts
Methodology
The Framework
Safety, Connection, Change delivered through Understand, Support, Engage, Develop and evidenced across five strands.
Read the Framework
Infrastructure
The Portal
Practice records, planning, welfare, animal care, staffing and CPD in one secure environment built around the Framework.
Capability
The Academy
A four-stage practitioner pathway plus assessor, supervisor and trainer designations, so the model is delivered consistently.

The four problems every AP hits at scale
Practice lives in people, not systems
When your best practitioner leaves, the method leaves with them. The Framework makes practice explicit, teachable and auditable.
Evidence is retrospective
Records written for inspection rather than for the young person. The Portal captures evidence at the point of practice.
No shared language
Staff describe the same young person in five different vocabularies. Safety, Connection, Change gives everyone one order of work.
Training is generic
Off-the-shelf CPD that never reaches the floor. The Academy trains your staff in the exact model they deliver.
The WILD Portal
Everything a provision runs on
Practice records
Session notes, observations and evidence captured in one place and linked to the Framework.
Planning and reviews
Individual support plans with clear aims, review points and progress notes.
Student welfare
Welfare checks, safeguarding records, attendance and incidents in a single secure environment.
Animal care records
Daily animal checks, health records and care logs integrated with the practice environment.
Staff management
Rota, supervision records, team communication and performance, all in one place.
Professional development
WILD Academy training, CPD records and practitioner pathways from inside the Portal.
The delivery cycle your team learns
Understand
The whole young person: strengths, needs, history and context, before any plan is written.
Support
Personalised support with clear aims, review points and the barriers to engagement named honestly.
Engage
Recognise learning and development wherever it occurs, not only in academic form.
Develop
Evidence meaningful progress, then reflect and adapt practice on what is and is not working.
Adoption
How organisations come on board
Discovery
We map your current practice, records and staffing against the Framework.
Configuration
Portal set up around your sites, pathways, strands and reporting needs.
Practitioner training
Your team works through the WILD Academy pathway, starting at Foundation.
Embedding
Supervision, quality assurance and review cycles until practice is self-sustaining.

We work with a small number of partner organisations at a time so that adoption is properly supported rather than licensed and left.
