Rhodes Wood Hospital School

Description

Rhodes Wood Hospital School is Independent Secondary school in Not applicable for kids aged 7 to 19 (Gender - 7 to 19 )

Rhodes Wood Hospital School is an integral part of the care and treatment programme facilitated within the hospital for young people with eating disorders. All young people admitted to the hospital attend this on site provision. Young people being cared for at the eating disorder service are able to continue to study subjects chosen at their home school or college. At Rhodes Wood Hospital School, they aim to minimise the interruption and disruption to the students whilst they are an inpatient at the hospital. A key part of their schooling is that we provide continuity between what they are studying at their home school and what they focus on here. They put students at the centre of our provision and everything they do is first and foremost in response to their individual needs. Staff at the school work hard to motivate and engage the young people in our care whilst also paying close attention to fostering positive relationships with them.

Curriculum
The curriculum is mainly based on the areas of study suggested by each young person’s home school. This is so that continuity is maintained and students continue to progress within their usual setting. Where this is not possible or appropriate, Rhodes Wood Hospital School has developed its own holistic curriculum to ensure it meets the need of each student. Young people with neurodevelopmental disorders and learning needs mainly follow an alternative curriculum that focuses upon developing core skills and life skills, this is personalised for each individual student. The students range from Key Stage 2 where the Hamilton Curriculum is followed into Key Stage where a wide variety of subjects including animation are available. At both Key Stage 4 and 5, opportunity to hone skills and learning experiences are offered within the context of the hospital setting.

Specialist Education & Learning Opportunities
While the school is not legally obliged to follow the National Curriculum, we adhere to it, wherever appropriate for individual students and the group as a whole. They recognise the importance of keeping abreast of curriculum development and opportunities that we develop and exploit to promote and extend young people’s learning.We recognise the importance of social, moral, spiritual and cultural (SMSC) development and highlight opportunities within each curriculum subject offered to address, explore and teach these aspects and values accordingly. Prominent in each of our classrooms are our own values, agreed and developed with young people, which set out the expectations for behaviour and conduct in the classroom.
