Curriculum and LEARNING
At the Green Unit, our curriculum is rigorously adapted to accommodate the unique neurodiverse profiles and individual learning requirements of every student.
By synthesizing the foundational standards of the UK National Curriculum, the International Primary Curriculum and International Middle Years Curriculum with the functional framework of ASDAN programmes, we facilitate highly personalized learning pathways. This multifaceted pedagogical approach ensures that bespoke interventions and differentiated instruction result in measurable, meaningful progress and holistic development for all learners.
Our educational approach is Individualised centered on:
- Adaptation
Delivering bespoke, data-driven instruction tailored to each student’s unique cognitive and sensory profile.
- Applied Learning for Everyday Life
Bridging the gap between academic rigorousness and the mastery of essential life skills to support long-term transitions.
- Student Empowerment and Development
Implementing intentional scaffolds that cultivate personal autonomy, internal resilience, and self-efficacy.
Our highly trained staff, including specialist teachers and support staff, create engaging, structured, and supportive learning environments where students are both challenged and encouraged to achieve their full potential.
