The Special Provision caters for a total of 55 pupils across 6 classes that are banded as below:

KS2

• Sharks
• Starfish

KS1 / LKS2

• Stingrays
• Turtles

EYFS / Pre-formal

• Seahorses - Pre-Formal
• Dolphins - EYFS

Each class has a Teacher that is responsible for ensuring that the curriculum meets the needs of the children and is delivered appropriately.  They are also responsible for assessing the children’s understanding and ensuring that their children make progress alongside meeting any pastoral needs that they may also have.  In addition to the Class Teacher, each class also has the support dependent on the needs of each individual class. 

Taught sessions are delivered using multi-sensory teaching approaches to ensure that the individual needs of all pupils are met.  This may include 1:1 focussed learning, small group sessions with children who are working at similar levels of development, or whole class teaching.  We also work closely with a wide range of professionals including Speech and Language therapists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists and the special school nursing team and implement their programmes into our daily teaching.  Some children may also receive 1:1 support from specialists such as the teacher of the deaf, the mobility service or the visual impairment team.
