School Day
The school will offer a teaching day beginning with circle time or sensory circuit or relaxation activities. This provides opportunities for regulatory activities on transition to school followed by 5 further teaching periods. Lesson times vary between 60 and 45 minutes with the flexibility to incorporate predictable routines within those sessions, for assessment opportunities and packing away any practical equipment. Our timings to the day allow for separation across Primary and Secondary phase.
