Curriculum at Glyne Gap School
We believe it is our moral purpose to enable pupils to live happy, purposeful and fulfilled lives both now and in the future.
We believe that such a life is what we want for each other,
what all parents want for their child and is a right of all. A learning
disability should not be a barrier to this life.
Our pupils’ learning is THE guiding principle at Glyne Gap. This belief runs through everything we do.
How does this impact on our curriculum?
Our curriculum
focus is on the areas of learning that are going to bring happiness, purpose
and fulfilment to our pupils
Our curriculum intent is that all pupils have
opportunities and develop skills to:
- be as independent
as they can be
- understand and
be understood to support their choice and autonomy
- develop and
enjoy purposeful play and leisure activities
- make a
contribution to their families, communities and society, including work
where appropriate
- have and maintain
positive relationships and friendships
- build
aspiration, self-confidence and resilience
In addition, our curriculum gives pupils the opportunities
to experience, be involved and enjoy the activities and milestones of childhood
and school life.
Our curriculum
acknowledges a child's parents/carers as the first, longest and most
important educator. In addition, we know
that the most effective learning
takes place when school and home work together.
