Our Day

The school day is carefully planned to allow children to access a curriculum that will enable them to learn and build on skills that will help them to achieve their full potential. This will be a blend of play based and academic learning, both child-initiated and adult led, and creativity. Children will also develop emotional awareness through our bespoke pathway.

Our timetable will form a consistent structure for the children, whilst allowing an element of flexibility. When each individual joins us, we will work with parents/carers and other colleagues to identify each child’s needs and use this information to make sure the environment, resources and support is tailored to them. The children will access a carefully planned curriculum with opportunities for personalised approaches, to support regulation and progress towards individual EHCP targets.
