Pupils are supported in mainstream lessons by a team of dedicated teaching assistants. This support can go across the complete ability range and is based on the needs of the pupil. Pupils in sets 4 and 5 have three 30 minute sessions per week in the department’s computer suite and follow the SuccessMaker program.
Pupils who need extra help with their reading are withdrawn for two 30minute sessions per week and follow the corrective reading program. In some cases pupils may be withdrawn for 1:1 sessions if their needs require it. Some pupils receive support in literacy and numeracy in small groups.
Wherever possible pupils are supported in their mainstream classes. Some pupils take one less option and work in the department on basic skills and coursework.
Special Needs register
The register caters for a wide variety of needs from specific learning difficulties to pupils who needs some help with basic skills. It contains all of the pupils governed by the Special Needs code of practice.
