Our 16 - 19
Extended Education group provides for students who are 16+ who
will benefit from a supported programme of transition to their
next phase of Education. During their time with us Students are
supported to develop their Independent Learning and Life
Experiences alongside their key skills of numeracy,
communication, literacy and ICT.
The teaching area
is situated in a separate part of the school with a friendly,
relaxed atmosphere in a comfortable well resourced environment.
This is beneficial both to learning and to creating extra
responsibility and independence for these older students.
The many school
resources are available to the group and local facilities are
used to widen their experiences and to make the curriculum
relevant and meaningful. Local supermarkets for shopping,
libraries, sports facilities, and other local places of interest
including social activities with other schools and colleges to
encourage interaction are integral to the course.
The student's
learning is supported by our Speech and Language Therapists,
classroom assistants and all other school personnel are
available to the students.
Independent travel
training, Literacy for Life, Young Business Enterprise and
Independent Learning Skills are some of the components added to
the core programmes of Numeracy, Literacy and I.C.T. and we
provide each student with an individual learning programme
adapted to their individual needs.
To assist with
college access, day link courses are provided at several local
colleges.
