Hub 2 – Towards Independence
Welcome to Hub 2 class. We are a part of the Towards Independence Department. The age of the pupils in our room ranges from 12 – 15 years. Hub 2 class is a very positive class where we celebrate the achievements of pupils daily, however great or small. We have worked to create a home from home environment for pupils to thrive and learn in. An important focus in Hub 2 is to promote independence in preparation for adult hood. Pupils are developing important skills such as feeding themselves, making choices using a range of communication aids from visual timetables to BSL and Makaton, and carrying out practical tasks that promote self-care. There are opportunities throughout the year to go out into the community shopping, visiting a garden centre, a farm and enjoying a meal out. We also have access to the flat on the school grounds for independent living development. We have a fun differentiated timetable that offers engaging lessons to pupils. These include rebound, hydrotherapy and sensory integration. Pupils in Hub 2 also enjoy sensory stories, reading, art, just to name a few. Some of our pupils work towards AIM qualifications and accreditations, whilst others work towards achieving AQA certificates in recognition of their hard work and efforts throughout the year. There is never a dull day in Hub 2!
