Pathway 1

Pathway 1 is our informal, highly personalised and engagement-led provision.

Pathway 1 supports pupils with severe and complex learning disabilities who may need high levels of support with communication, regulation, personal care and daily routines.

Learning begins with trust, connection and readiness to engage.

Communication may be highly individual and may include body language, objects of reference, symbols, signing, AAC, intensive interaction and other non-spoken approaches.

The focus is on engagement, interaction, sensory and emotional regulation, early cognition, communication foundations, familiar routines and meaningful experiences.
