Description
The Haven School is an independent Special School for children and young people with an EHCP where the primary need is social, emotional and mental health. The pupils can come to at any stage in their school career from 11 to 19 years of age. The point at which they are admitted will vary according to past experiences in other educational settings and possibly also as a result of home circumstances.
Facilities
The programme that students follow at The Haven is bespoke to their needs and is informed by their Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Each student has an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) that ensures their curriculum allows them to achieve individual goals and the outcomes required on their EHCP.
Personal, Social, Health and Economic education (PSHE) threads through the whole curriculum at The Haven. All students are encouraged to access this through a variety of means including during assemblies, form times, Skill Building sessions and Key Worker sessions. English, Maths, Science and Computing are fundamental core subjects which Key Stage 3 and 4 study as part of their bespoke programme. Other GCSE subjects are available to study through the partnership with co-located high school. The curriculum is enriched with foundation subjects such as the creative arts, humanities and technology alongside offsite activities such as Bushcraft, farming, animal care and outdoor education. In addition, they value learning experiences outside of the classroom which are used to enhance learning through visits and trips.
