To help us make sure that each student receives the right balance of practical and more academic teaching and learning, we choose the most appropriate pathway for each student by considering: individual interests and skills, and where a student may go after they leave. The pathways allow us to plan a personalized curriculum for each student that best meets their own needs.

Securing                                                                                      

Students on the secure pathway have been identified as having, with focused levels of support, the ability and disposition to follow a more academic route through the school.

Developing                                                                                  

Students supported by the SALT team follow the 'developing pathway' and a curriculum that prepares them for a future that is likely to require more support - in order to develop  the autonomy that will aid their progress beyond the school.

Emerging                                                                                     

Students within the 'emerging pathway' are characterized as benefiting from appropriate areas of support in the areas of communication, social interaction and relationships. The curriculum, for these students, aims to develop their independence. Learning opportunities are targeted at manageable levels.

The pathways are not fixed; staff monitor progress to make sure that each student is within the right pathway for them. They can move from one pathway to another at any time, if this is best for them.  We want their chosen pathway to be realistic and achievable.
