Personalised Packages

A very small number of KS4 learners require a much more bespoke offer.  This may be for a variety of reasons including, but not exclusively, because they are high risk individuals who require high levels of supervision either on or offsite; or they require a nurturing curriculum that focuses on basic and life skills; or they have been out of education for a considerable time and struggle to adjust to full time classroom-based learning; or they have been permanently excluded from specialist provision.

Bespoke timetables are used as a stepping stone into full time provision at Three Towers.  The transition for these learners is often very slow and their progress is reviewed weekly or sometimes daily against their targets.

When it is possible, these learners access much smaller groups for direct teaching of basic skills (focusing on literacy and numeracy) and therapeutic interventions focussing on social skills and/or behavioural sef-regulation. If possible appropriate vocational and/or extended work experience placements are set up.
