Meet the therapy team
Our multiskilled team can assess and support any need you might have. Together we’ll put strategies in place to help you work towards your goals, whatever they may be. Our integrated therapy support covers five key areas.
Speech and language therapists (SaLT)
For some young people, unlocking their communication skills can be the first step to success. Our qualified SaLT team use a total communication approach to help every student thrive. We use many different ways to communicate with each other, such as Makaton signing, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), Social Stories, Objects of Reference and Talking Mats.
Positive Behaviour Support team
We follow the Positive Behaviour Support model (PBS). This means we take the time to understand a student’s behaviour, identify positive long-term goals and focus on improving someone’s quality of life.
Occupational therapists
Our occupational therapists help students take part in learning and become more independent. They take a sensory integration approach, assessing an individual’s sensory needs and then making use of our 4D sensory learning space and specialist facilities. They can even develop a sensory diet if required.
Physiotherapists
Our physiotherapists support students with any physical needs they may have. Using facilities like our hydrotherapy pool and rebound therapy, they can help students develop their physical health and wellbeing.
Assistive technologist
Our assistive technology experts help students access technology that can help with learning and everyday life. They work with students with all kinds of different needs, helping them use the right kind of adaptive devices to suit them.
