Support for Learning

The aim of the education unit is to provide support and encouragement to young people whose previous experience of education may not have been positive. Moore House has a full time Learning Support teacher who works individually with young people in the Learning Support base, as well as offering additional support in particular subject classes. The Learning Support teacher plays an important part in the initial assessment of all young people, helping to identify gaps in education and working in a consultative role to enable subject teachers to provide a differentiated curriculum.

All young people have a key teacher with whom they spend individual time on a weekly basis.

A team of classroom assistants enhances the learning experience of young people by offering support on an individual or small group basis.

Care staff spend time in school with their key pupils and take an active interest in their education. Additionally, a dedicated team of three staff, led by a Senior Child Care Worker, provide behaviour support during the school day.
