How we adapt teaching to ensure access to the curriculum:
Providing support – having a designated adult to work with the pupil
Having a calm area where the pupil can have ‘time out’.
Pupils are encouraged to work with others within a small group with the support of an adult
Pupils are encouraged to share their ideas with others and adults model how to take turns, share and negotiate with their peers.
Consistent routines/boundaries and expectations of behaviour
Being sensitive to the needs of individual pupils, taking into account their personal circumstances.
Being sensitive to any resources being used.
How we provide support and intervention for those with identified needs:
A place for time out
Small group ‘Circle Time’
Home School Books
Learning Mentor Programme
Refer to outside agencies as appropriate eg bereavement counselling, CAMHs
Advice followed from CAMHs or other agencies
Extra visits to Secondary Schools
Cool Kids programme
Supporting families with multiagency involvement
During unstructured times support staff and supervisors made aware of the needs of specific pupils.
