Overview
9am – 2:30pm
At Esland Grantham School, we provide an inspirational learning environment where students are supported and encouraged to actively participate in learning opportunities.
We offer high-quality education to 7 to 18 year-olds with a range of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) with the primary need of Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH). In addition to this, many of our students have neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), ADD (attention-deficit disorder) and attachment. They may also have encountered a range of adverse childhood experiences and trauma.
Curriculum
Our students learn from a broad and balanced curriculum. It's based on the National Curriculum's programme of study, but we plan and tailor it to meet our students' individual needs.
The curriculum consists of three fundamental principles:
- It links to current issues in our students' immediate and broader worlds to help them gain an understanding of local, national, and global contexts.
- It's planned and sequenced in a way that makes it accessible for all students, regardless of when they joined the school and their individual starting points.
- It provides a holistic approach to our students' development. Academic outcomes are only part of the journey, so we plan our curriculum in a way that helps students meet the national Preparing for Adulthood outcomes to help them lead a fulfilled and independent life.
