How We Adapt Our Curriculum
At Lindhead, our guiding principle is "Learning, Caring & Growing Together," and we believe this is best achieved when our school is "Inclusive by Design". We know that every child learns differently, and our approach to adaptive teaching is simple: adaptations are about removing barriers—not lowering expectations. On this page, you can explore how we ensure every pupil can access the same rich curriculum. Rather than relying on a label or a diagnosis, our staff provide support based on what each child needs in that specific lesson. By focusing on our four pillars of support:
- Understanding (Cognition and learning)
- Talking & Sharing (Communication and interaction)
- Confidence & Wellbeing (Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH))
- Access & Senses (Sensory/physical)
We work in partnership with families to ensure every child can investigate, create, and grow with confidence.
