The Main School Department

The Main School Department at Heritage House School caters for pupils with severe learning difficulties and complex needs between the ages of seven and fourteen. The pupils continue to follow our “Skills for Life” curriculum.

Many pupils have additional support allocated and follow very individualised timetables, which ensure their special educational needs are met. The children in the Main School Department have access to a range of specialist resources including an art room, an ICT room, a sensory room, hydrotherapy pool, and food technology room and specialist music provision.

As pupils progress through the school the focus is on teaching them to acquire skills with increased independence. For some pupils this will be teaching them the skills to make choices about their own needs and preferences. For other pupils teaching them to make simple snacks or use community facilities will be relevant within their lives.
