Curriculum

At Coombe House School, we take a holistic approach to education, ensuring that every pupil is given a wide range of opportunities to develop their skills, knowledge, and understanding. Our curriculum includes study of more conventional National Curriculum subjects, Vocational Training, integration of 21st-century skills, employment skills, and gives significant focus to the lifelong outcomes within our Preparation for Adulthood programmes.

We deliver this curriculum in a way that creatively interweaves all these learning areas through class-based learning, outdoor experiences, and opportunities to engage with the broader community, both locally and beyond. The curriculum is carefully supported by our therapy team, which includes our Speech and Language Therapist, Sensory Integration trained Occupational Therapist, and Educational Psychologist. Their work helps to remove barriers to learning and empowers each pupil with the skills they need to succeed.

Our graduated approach to learning allows us to design, develop, and implement bespoke learning pathways for each pupil, supporting them in reaching their full potential throughout their time at the school.

Guided by our core values of Kindness, Belonging, and Ambition, alongside our school expectations of being Ready, Respectful, and Safe, we aim to equip pupils with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to apply their learning in real-life situations. This approach helps our pupils become successful lifelong learners who contribute positively to their communities.
