All of our pupils follow the national Curriculum for Excellence (CFE) <\/strong>which provides a holistic, child-centred approach to teaching and learning.\u00a0 Staff are skilled at bringing learning to life in a useful, meaningful and personalised manner.\u00a0 You can read about Curriculum for Excellence on the Education Scotland website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A broad, balanced, fun curriculum is offered, promoting skills for learning, life and work.\u00a0 Everyone who works with the pupils shares a responsibility to develop skills in Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Wellbeing and offer the appropriate support for each individual.\u00a0 This ensures pupils learn in a way that works for them, at a pace they can cope with, to reach success but also to ensure they are challenged in their learning and that they develop new skills.<\/p>\n

Every pupil has an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) which promotes the development of core skills.\u00a0 Pupils (where appropriate) and families are consulted on priorities for development and ILPs are built by teachers in partnership with families.\u00a0 All pupils are \u00a0encouraged to become as independent as possible, developing their self-esteem and confidence within and beyond the classroom environment.<\/p>\n
