Curriculum

Curriculum Intent

Our curriculum is carefully considered, to reflect the needs of the local and wider community as well as tailored to any individual learning goals and aspirations. As standard, learners will be supported with employability skills and vocational learning through accredited qualifications. Topics and subjects are chosen to further support learners with developing their social, communication and interaction skills, appropriate friendships and relationships with others. Our aim is to also facilitate access to the local community and community services.

Curriculum Implementation

Our curriculum is delivered by trained and experienced tutors in small groups. We design and deliver subject content in the curriculum offer that allows learners to transfer key skills and knowledge. In lessons, learners are encouraged to discuss, debate, and share their views on what is important to them. Core Mathematics and English skills are embedded, and technology is utilised to enable confidence in digital and computer skills. The curriculum is sequenced so that new knowledge and skills build on what learners know and can do, and learners can work towards defined end points.

Curriculum Impact

Our curriculum enables learners to gain greater confidence and independence. Learners know more, can remember, and apply more, meaning that they can do and achieve more when at home or in the workplace. Learner’s social, communication and interaction skills continue to improve and develop through the wider tutorials and activities completed. Learners achieve qualifications and experience that will enable them to progress into paid or voluntary employment, work experience, further study and learning.
