Consistent Expectations

All staff work in such a way that the learning environment is calm and consistent, with clear expectation, both as group and individuals. This will maximise information processing throughout each day, allowing learners to realise their full potential. The curriculum design across all age ranges connects each learner with the acquisition of knowledge, skill and understanding related to minimising the effects of a diagnosis of autism and its related difficulties. This design makes meaningful connections for learners, which maximises their potential for their success and independence.
