Nurturing Positive Behaviour

Positive Behavioural Support is globally recognised as an evidence based, effective and ethical way of supporting people with learning disabilities who are at risk of or are experiencing behaviour of concern. This model is a values based one which enriches and complements the Camphill model.

Personal Teaching and Learning

Within the Camphill school, the teaching body work collaboratively to provide a truly individualised offering to our children and young people based on close observation of the pupil, their needs and how they communicate those needs.

Person Centered Planning

A flexible, strengths’ based approach, taking the child or young person’s individual needs as the starting point, is the most effective in supporting our pupils to gradually develop the skills to access what they need to learn and develop.
