The Wren Spinney School Curriculum is in five areas relating to Preparing for Adulthood (PfA). Delivery is provision specific.

For each area of the curriculum, a pupil will have a Personalised Learning Goal (PLG).   PLGs are linked to their EHCP outcomes. PLGs are assessed using the Mapping and Assessing Personal Progress (MAPP) criteria.

Progress against PLGs is measured against these four MAPP principles


Impact:
We believe that this will enable our students to become...
  • Successful learners who make progress against their Personalised Learning Goals, enjoy learning and achieve their potential.
  • Confident adults who can live safe, healthy and happy lives.
  • Responsible adults who make a positive contribution to society.
