Curriculum Offer

Our priority is to nurture and strengthen the health and well-being of each pupil through a curriculum that is inclusive to all and informed by Person Centred Practices, whilst supported by the UNCRC Rights of the Child.

The curriculum offer enables pupils to develop in line with the Four Purposes, providing tailored learning experiences that are broad, balanced and bespoke to the individual needs.
