We understand that for young people with autism, learning is about more than just academic progress it’s about feeling safe, confident, and supported to grow in their own time and way.
A curriculum expertly designed to fit every young person
Our young people will follow one of two curriculum pathways, sensory or progressive, depending on their individual needs, peer group and cognitive abilities.
- The sensory curriculum is guided by the ‘equals informal’ curriculum, which is taught through a non-subject specific approach.
- The progression curriculum is taught through a largely subject specific approach and topic lessons linked to themes.
A young person will follow these pathways into Key Stage 5, where they will become ‘Learners for Life’. They will then take part in more structured transition visits which are destination led, with class groups consisting of no more than six.
Young people will participate in a meaningful curriculum, with high expectations where they are challenged to make good progress through stimulating and dynamic lessons. Self-regulation is embedded throughout the curriculum alongside a fully integrated model of ther apeutic support.
