Curriculum Overviews

What are we learning this year?

Our curriculum is organised into three distinct pathways, ensuring that every student receives an ambitious, personalised education that supports their individual needs, aspirations and EHCP outcomes. Each pathway offers a rich blend of academic learning, communication development, personal growth, independence and preparation for adulthood.

Primary and Keller Pathways focuses on play-based and topic-led learning, developing communication, social interaction and early academic skills.

Simmonds Pathway provides a semi-formal curriculum where learning is practical, meaningful and linked to real-life experiences.

Hawking Pathway follows a more formal curriculum, preparing students for qualifications, further education and future careers.

This approach ensures every student can achieve success, develop independence and prepare confidently for their next stage of life.
