Curriculum
They offer a broad and balanced curriculum with subject specific classrooms and learning spaces for science, history, geography, music, food technology, information technology and horticulture. Following timely baseline assessments, Wings Notts offers a gradual transition period for children and young people to settle them in to their new school life and ensure they are receiving an appropriate and relevant educational offer. They also have a fantastic opportunity for young people who are unable to access our more traditional model, taking learning outside of the classroom, allowing pupils to experience new things and reengage with learning. This enhances their educational outcomes and provides them opportunities to develop social skills and become positive members of their community. They operate a pathway model, using baseline and progress data, staff observation, pupil voice and evidence recorded, pupils are placed upon an appropriate pathway ensuring they receive the suitable, relevant and targeted interventions and curriculum to meet their needs. They also work with some amazing local contacts to truly enhance our pupils’ experiences and influence their outcomes such as; Oasis Community Centre, Thoresby Estate and Idle Valley Nature Reserve.
