Curriculum
Each student has an individualised timetable which is agreed with them at the start of each academic year. They have access to the core subjects, all Humanities subjects, PE, ICT, Health and Social Care, PHSE, as well as vocational subject areas and enrichment, within their personalised curriculum at Post 16.
At Key stage 4, the students will access the core subjects (English, Maths, Science, ICT), alongside other subject options that are aligned to the government requirements. Students use a credits-based system to select their courses of study at Key Stage 5.
Academic progress is extremely important, however a strong focus of the work done is on building confidence so that students can access independent living skills, as well as opportunities to develop their social interactions skills to ensure that they are able to function as active citizens in modern Britain.
