Life & Work

Our Life and Work curriculum helps learners to flourish and embrace independence by equipping them with skills for life, further education and employment. 

There are 3 key strands, through which we teach the subjects of Design and Technology (D&T) and Catering:

  • Looking after myself and my home: which includes learning vital life skills, such as having a healthy lifestyle, cooking and nutrition
  • My community and the wider world: which includes being able to travel independently, volunteer in the local community, use community services and practice first aid
  • Careers and the world of work: which includes exploring careers, business and enterprise, developing work skills and gaining work experience
