Each Kite Ridge School student follows a bespoke curriculum tailored to their own individual and specific needs. Students are taught in group sessions when able to and also on a one to one basis by Learning Mentors and teachers. Some students are also taken out for work experience sessions at a number of placements within the local community such as Building Zone, Chiltern Wood School, Riding for the Disabled, Road Farm and The Horse Trust to prepare them for adult life in the wider community. Furthermore, students are taken to weekly swimming sessions at the local swimming pool or at a hydrotherapy pool. Music therapy is also provided as part of the curriculum on a weekly basis, either in group or individual sessions.

National Curriculum Subjects in Whole School Topics

The whole school follows a four year rolling curriculum program where a certain subject provides the focus for lessons throughout a term. A table outlining the various subjects is provided below.

Religious Worship

We receive fortnightly visits from Ruth Harley from a local church who leads our religious assembly. Ruth also kindly allows three of our students to visit the church to take part in some work experience. Ruth's work with our school was recently written about in Oxford Diocese newspaper and now features on their website.
