This programme will support all aspects of your needs including health, care, therapies, medications and educational development. We create supportive and stretching learning environments in which learners are encouraged to take ownership of their learning and develop their confidence and independence so they can make progress towards their EHCP outcomes.
What you'll learn
Working towards a range of experiential
activities applicable to the learner’s needs:
- Functional Skills – English, Maths,
money, ICT - Social and Communication Skills
- Lifeskills
- Independence Skills
- A variety of leisure and vocational subjects
How you'll learn and be assessed
A sensory and developmental curriculum
delivered in small steps with a personalised
approach.
The curriculum focuses on
developing communication, engagement
and experiences. Activities are whole class,
group or individually based. Curriculum is
truly personalised and based on a variety of
assessments and a young person’s EHCP
outcomes.
Environments will be adapted
depending on sensory needs and mode
of learning.
Teachers also work closely with therapists,
where these are part of a young persons EHCP,
and these are fully integrated within all aspects
of the college day and sometimes even at home
and the community.
Progression
Some learners may undertake a formal
qualification at Entry level. Most learners
will have a programme based on their own
individual starting points and needs which is
tracked and monitored in a variety of ways
including individual targets that are negotiated
and set with learners, carers and therapists.
Some learners progress to other
courses. Most learners successfully
progress into positive adult services
and community provision.
Entry requirements
We would like to get to know you as soon as
possible, sometimes even two years before
you are due to leave school.
We run transition
programmes and taster days to assess your
needs but also make transition as smooth as
possible.
Suitability for the programme will be
assessed by the college SEND team and via
local-authority consultation process.
