Our curriculum
At Tor View School, the curriculum is specifically designed to ensure the learning that takes place is relevant, engaging and motivating for our students. This has been developed to best prepare them for the opportunities, experiences and responsibilities of adult life.
The school provides an appropriate and adapted curriculum. Students have access to the National Curriculum, which is modified according to the individual needs and abilities of each young person. The curriculum is delivered through a primary model where students spend the majority of the time with consistent members of staff, visiting other spaces for learning with specialist teachers where appropriate e.g. home cooking, art or outdoor learning.
For some of our young people the curriculum is based on play, interaction and communication. Students are supported in the development of non-verbal and verbal communication skills, emotional regulation and benefitting from a specific sensory diet determined by the specialist teacher and members of the therapy team. This in time may prepare the students for the broader curriculum available as well as communicating verbally.
