Our approach

At Inscape House School, no two learning programmes are the same, because no two learners are the same.

We take a creative and personalised approach so that every student can learn at their level, in a way that suits their needs.

From the curriculum to classroom design, we think about every detail to help our learners thrive. We work with our students to be as flexible and responsive as possible. We know that small adjustments make a big difference.

 

Inscape House School's vision

Together we learn, grow and succeed. Together, conquering barriers and surpassing expectations.

Inscape House School's mission

Together we provide opportunities to promote independence and teach life-changing skills; we engage, we support and we motivate to equip our unique young people to face life's challenges.

What to expect at Inscape House School

Our teaching methods

We approach teaching in a flexible way to meet the needs of our learners. For instance, students might have personal timetables and one-to-one tuition, balanced with group work and activities. Our class sizes are purposefully small – never more than eight students. And each group has a teacher and educational assistants who work with the students every day.

Positive behavioural support

Our approach is positive and proactive, never punitive. We support students in understanding their emotions and help them learn coping strategies to handle all kinds of situations.

Person-centred curriculum

We shape learning programmes to the student while offering a broad range of subjects from the national curriculum. But it’s not just about academic achievement. We also teach communication, social and life skills. Read more about the curriculum at Inscape House School.

Creative ways to support learning

We get to know our students and the things they’re interested in. Those special interests can be a great way to help students with their progress. We’ve found all kinds of ways to engage our students, from gardening and horticulture to climbing and animal assisted intervention.

Increasing independence and participation

At Inscape, young people have a voice in their learning. They can set their targets, contribute to their annual progress review, and take part in our school council.

Positive mental health and wellbeing

We take a whole-school approach to managing positive mental health and wellbeing for our students. We have three qualified counsellors in our team, mental health first aiders on-site, and access to the broader Together Trust family of therapeutic support. Find out more about therapy support at Inscape.

Partnership with parents

When we work together, we change lives. We work students and their families to develop strategies for all aspects of their lives and host regular parent partnership events.

Support for learning

All our students receive a universal level of support for education. But additional support is there when they need it as part of our three-tier support model. It’s common for students to move between tiers depending on what’s happening in their lives.

Our facilities 

Students love our campus. We’ve got everything covered with sensory rooms, an adventure playground, outdoor gym equipment and a sensory playground. Our green-fingered students can develop their horticulture skills in our gardens, while students can develop their work and independence skills in our fully equipped kitchen and onsite café. And, computer-savvy students can put their skills to the test in our ICT suite. 

The best way to see what we have to offer is to pay us a visit. Contact us to arrange a tour.
