Lower
School
We
aim to provide a stimulating environment in which the
individual needs of all our pupils can be assessed and
identified. Working closely with parents and other agencies,
the staff aim to help each child to improve his or her
learning skills, play and level of independence through
carefully planned activities.
The nursery caters for children with a whole range of
special needs as well as “mainstream” children
from the local community who join us on three days a
week playing and learning alongside our pupils. The
bright and welcoming nursery consists of two rooms,
an open air quadrangle and two outside play areas.
The
lower school consists of key stage 1 and 2 classes where
pupils experience a full range of subjects as well as
programmes suited to their needs. There is a continued
emphasis on the teaching of communication and language.
We also have pupils in satellite classes at a local
primary school, Goosewell, 15 minutes walk away from
Downham. |
