How we enrich the curriculum

How we enrich the curriculum 


At Tadley Court School, our school curriculum can really enrich the lives of our young people as it has been designed with flexibility, dignity and strengths in mind. We include cultural weeks every term, activities week in the summer term, professional guest speakers, outdoor learning week and team-building week. We also support a number of national events including World Book Day  and Children in Need week. 
 

We provide opportunities for our young people to try new activities in a way that suits them. We build life skills, including communication, emotional regulation, money, travel, and digital literacy. If gentle encouragement is what it takes, then we take small steps.  

We include our young peoples’ voice in our planning, work with families to align learning with home and community life. Developing their skills and connecting with our local community is meaningful, builds independence and helps our young people feel valued as capable learners. We actively build strong links with local businesses, charities and organizations to create world opportunities that help our young people gain work experience, give back, and feel proud of their contribution.

Shining in our community

Connecting with our community is key to helping young people grow in confidence and purpose. That’s why we actively build strong links with local businesses, charities and organisations. We create real-world opportunities that help students gain experience, give back, and feel proud of their contribution.

These community links don’t just build practical skills—they help young people feel involved in the world around them.
