All schools in Scotland organise learning and teaching according to the Curriculum for Excellence. We also have additional support from the newly devised Milestones to Support Learners with Complex Additional Support Needs. These frameworks support schools to identify and plan learning experiences which promote the development of Successful Learners, Confident Individuals, Responsible Citizens and Effective Contributors.<\/p>\n

At Castleview School, we aim to create the optimal learning environment to ensure children experience learning opportunities which are meaningful and impactful and develop the skills and
\nattributes our children need to live full, productive and fulfilling lives.<\/p>\n
We do so by:
\n\u2022 Ensuring a consistently high quality of interaction between staff, children and their environment.
\n\u2022 High expectations on the children to communicate by whatever means available to them.
\n\u2022 Having a sound knowledge of the child\u2019s strengths and development needs, capitalizing on their strengths by appropriate use of multisensory approaches.
\n\u2022 Building on existing skills and developing new skills.
\n\u2022 Providing appropriate opportunities for learning in the local community.
\n\u2022 Keeping our focus on building the skills, talents and attributes of our children.
\n\u2022 Ensuring our children experience consistently high standards of teaching and support.
\n\u2022 Fostering the best working relationships with our partner services to ensure that our children access every support and therapy appropriate for them.<\/p>\n
Children\u2019s Plans have a focus on Health and Wellbeing and Communication. Teachers work with partners to provide a holistic assessment of each child, plan their next steps, design experiences to attain agreed outcomes and evaluate progress.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We recognise that the curriculum is the sum totality of the experiences which are planned for the children and young people
\nthrough their education, therefore the curriculum includes learning through:
\n\u2022 The ethos and life of the school as a community.
\n\u2022 Interdisciplinary projects and studies.
\n\u2022 Opportunities for personal achievement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
