Introduction to the Curriculum

Educating for the future; Step by step

Given our unique student profile, our curriculum delivery differs significantly from traditional approaches.

We place a strong emphasis on nurturing the skills our students will need as they transition to adulthood.

Our unwavering commitment is to provide a high-quality educational provision that caters to the unique needs of each student. We believe in building strong relationships that empower students with essential skills for life.

Schemes of Work

Our curriculum revolves around communication and Preparing for Adulthood, utilising 'EQUALS' schemes of work. It comprises several key areas:

  • Communication 
  • Good Health
  • Friends, Relationships and Community
  • Independent Living
  • Future Destinations

We don't offer conventional maths and English lessons. Instead, our students learn essential English (Communication) and maths skills within the framework of our curriculum, tailored to their individual cognitive levels.
