KS3
Literacy withdrawal workshops take place for those students requiring additional support. These workshops are instead of a second language and emphasis is on improving reading and spelling ages using a variety of methods and activities. Some students are disapplied from both languages to do further learning support, mainly to address severe dyslexia.
KS4
This is a small group non-examination option and places on it will be limited to those students on the SEN register. It is recommended for students who are committed to improving basic skills, and to improving their work across the curriculum.
Students on this course will be keen to use the opportunity to develop, re-draft and word process work for other areas of the curriculum in order to improve the standard of their work. All students will have access to a computer and can use programmes such as INSPIRATION and SAM LEARNING.
