About the students

We offer highly personalised education, health and care packages, based on individual needs and current circumstances. Our packages are designed and intended to support our young people to be better prepared for adulthood and to realise their true potential. 

Beaumont College is a friendly and vibrant place where students can develop interests and gradually gain the skills and confidence they need to move on to the next stage of their lives.

Curriculum

The college’s curriculum consists of six Pathways that offer their own unique learning experience via bespoke sets of specifically designed teaching and learning strategies, knowledge, understanding and skills acquisition, subject delivery and course delivery. Each pathway has a clear rationale as to the potential outcomes for students and describes the possible impact of their achievements on their quality of life.

Each pathway in the curriculum framework has a clear structure that outlines the implementation, intent and impact of the theory and practices utilised within it, in order that learning can be effectively planned, assessed and monitored.

Our curriculum provision offers six pathways:

Sensory Communication


Interactive Communication


Skills for Independent Living


Skills for Life and Work


Learning Through Technology and Partnership
