Aims and Outcomes

The school’s key aims are for our children to:

• Be happy, safe and active members of the school and wider community
• Develop their social, communication and academic skills to their full potential
• Self-manage their behaviour
• Develop self-care and independent living skills in order to live a rich and fulfilling life

Connect

At Maple View School we believe that a key part of our personal growth and development is about how we connect with the world around us and how we connect with others.  Personal, Social, Health and Economic education (PSHE) is at the heart of the curriculum, and intertwined into daily activities, with a focus on social development. Equipping children with the skills and resilience required to participate within a range of communities safely and effectively. We belong to the ‘Kindness School ‘programme and daily acts of kindness are encouraged and celebrated. Children also access horticulture and small animal care, Forest School and community-based activities ensuring that children have a rich culture capital offer.

Learn

At Maple View School we want to develop a love of learning. Children follow an individualised curriculum pathway focussing on EHCP Outcomes. Making learning both functional and fun is important, whilst ensuring that children are exposed to daily literacy, numeracy and PSHE activities. Individual and group therapy sessions take place within the classroom, within therapy rooms, outdoors or in the community throughout the school day, with communication and sensory regulation at the heart of the programmes.
