Curriculum

Our Curriculum Overview

A Commitment to Excellence

We believe that the curriculum embodies all that is learned: via lessons, social times, therapeutic input and role modelling by the adults and peers around them. There is a clear thread of skills built into planning, focusing intent, implementation and impact of learning in all areas of the curriculum. With this in mind, we are promoting our values of Empowering Students with Unity, Integrity, and Compassion, while Embracing Empathy, Respect, Accountability, and Innovation. We aim to teach our young people to grow into citizens who are able to work and cooperate with others, whilst developing their knowledge and skills so that they make progress from their different starting points and celebrate both academic and personal success.

The curriculum consists of three key focus areas which are consistent across both key stages. The delivery of these focus areas are reflective of age, stage, and carefully selected learning programmes based on individual needs. These three areas promote academic/vocational achievement, personal development and preparing for adulthood.
