Curriculum content and delivery
Class/subject teachers ensure that:
- Teaching and learning opportunities are appropriately differentiated to take into account sensory, physical and/or medical needs and ensure that there are appropriate levels of intellectual challenge and support within the lesson.
- They reflect on the sensory and physical demands of the subject area and make adjustments in order to improve access through:
- Differentiating by task, outcome or teaching materials.
- Opportunities for distributed practice and interleaved learning.
- Allowing more time to complete tasks and this is incorporated into curriculum planning.
- Additional support for personal care, such as dressing and toileting.
- Pupils are given opportunities to demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways, such as:
- Use of alternative methods of recording.
- Use of appropriate ICT.
- Teaching assistants work as part of a team with the class/subject teacher and are used to deliver structured evidence-based motor interventions.
- Teaching resources are age appropriate, inclusive and relevant.
- The VI Service have developed some guidance leaflets for primary and secondary teachers.
