Curriculum

Our Learning Approach

We know how important it is to achieve a balance between the social and academic development of our students. We believe students must be happy and confident in order to be able to achieve their full potential. 

Here is what you can expect to see when you look around our school:

• A full curriculum including GCSEs, BTECs, A Levels and Diplomas offered at various levels
• Students immersed in the English language in the classroom to develop language, literacy and listening skills
• Acoustically treated classrooms
• Small class sizes
• A horse-shoe shape desk arrangement so that students can lip read each other and the teacher
• Teachers who are subject specialist Teachers of the Deaf (or are working towards the qualification)
• Students supported into peer groups
• Classrooms equipped with group aid technology to allows pupils to hear each other as well as the teacher
• An Audiology department on site to support students’ hearing and equipment
• A dedicated team of Speech and Language Therapists who directly support students and work alongside teachers to create bespoke targets for each individual pupil’s education
