Curriculum

Our curriculum is based on the Curriculum for Wales framework and incorporates the following:

3 foundations for success:

  • Literacy
  • Numeracy
  • Digital competency

6 areas of learning experience:

  • Expressive arts
  • Health and wellbing
  • Humanities
  • Language, literacy and communication
  • Mathematics and numeracy
  • Science and technology 

The 4 purposes:

  • Ambitious capable learners
  • Enterprising creative contributors
  • Healthy confident individuals
  • Ethical informed citizens
In addition to the curriculum, we place pupils into ‘willingness to learn’ groups which sit alongside the school’s therapeutic framework. The groups are known as:
  • Learn to learn
  • Ready to learn
  • Inspired to learn
As pupils begin or move their way through the groupings, we alter the focus from having a larger breadth and depth of activities associated with establishing competence. This begins with building solid attachments with staff and improving resilience in each individual pupil. We then increase the breadth and depth associated with the content of the curriculum. This ensures we are both aspirational, as well as supportive, of meeting individual pupil needs so that they can move on to their next steps with improved outcomes.
