“Leaders have developed an inspirational curriculum that ensures that learning is tailored to meet the needs of all pupils.” – Ofsted (June 2023)
Sunningdale School has developed a multi-tiered curriculum approach for pupils with severe, complex, profound and multiple learning difficulties. The school’s approach has been designed so that pupils at all levels can effectively apply their learning to develop independence and agency
Sunningdale School’s vision is encapsulated in the phrase, ‘Be More…’ This will be different for every child. Believing that every child can Be More means that we want every child to be more in whatever way is important to them. The school’s vision is actioned at a pupil level through the use of a highly personalised planning system supported by specific Personalised Learning Plans (PLPs) and an understanding of Engagement motivators.
Classes are arranged across 3 theoretical pedagogical pathways that begin on transition from the Early Years Foundation Stage and run through Key Stages 1 and 2 until the pupils’ transition to relevant secondary provisions at the end of year 6. The pathways are the Pre-formal Pathway, the Explore Pathway and the Semi-formal Play Pathway. These are underpinned by a pre-formal, informal low-demand and semi-formal approach respectively. The school utilises a play-based pedagogy throughout.
The school’s pathways are supported by a multi-tiered curriculum model that is sequenced to towards cumulatively developing skills, knowledge and holistic development both within and across each pathway. Curriculum areas are closely matched to consider the developmental needs of the pupils in each pathway. The school developed its pathway approach based on the unique needs and growing complexity of the pupil groups attending the school. They are supported by a play based pedagogy as well as specific well known interventions and strategies. Strong links are made with Preparation for Adulthood (PfA) outcomes and subjects build cumulatively towards supporting these: Employment, Independent Living, Community Participation, Friendships & Relationships.
“Many schools are organised as they are because they always have been, not because they must be.” – Ken Robinson
Ours isn’t.
http://www.sunningdaleschool.com/curriculum/curriculumoverview.htm
We are establishing a series of practice sharing days where delegates will get to hear from senior and middle leaders about the school’s approach including how subjects, pedagogy and assessment are structured to support individualised outcomes for pupils working throughout the school. Delegates will have time to speak to senior and middle leaders as well as spend time in classrooms and see the schools facilities.
Places will be limited to ensure that delegates take as much from the day as possible but will also offer some opportunities to network with like minded provisions.
The cost is set at £100 per person. The day will include a buffet lunch and networking session.
Please get in touch if you would like support with accommodation or travel recommendations.

This informative 2 hour course has been designed for teachers and other educational practitioners who have a basic understanding of dyslexia and want to further develop their knowledge. During the session, delegates will further develop their understanding and knowledge of dyslexia and dyspraxia.
You will leave with reassuringly uncomplicated strategies and activities to stimulate and aid development. By the end of this workshop you will have:
- More knowledge and understanding about dyslexia and dyspraxia.
- Develop an understanding of the key interventions and strategies available.
- Worked through a selection of case studies to further develop your understanding of how to implement these strategies in class.
The strategies are not diagnostic tools, and you will not be able to gain a diagnosis from this session.
Workshop leader Karen Ferguson is the Founder and Principal Trainer for Linrow Education. Karen started teaching science at a mainstream secondary school in 2000. She then moved into the SEND environment working with children and parents to help them overcome their disabilities and give them the skills to achieve their full potential. Karen was appointed as a Specialist Leader in Education for Autism and this allowed her to disseminate good practice and deliver SEND training. She offers various condition specific training, including ASC, ADHD and Dyslexia.
Karen has continued her personal professional development over the years: she has a Masters Degree in Education and Level 2 Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism and PDA qualifications. She is currently working towards her Doctorate in Education.

Event Details
Teaching in a Specialist School is more than just a career; it’s a vocation that leaves a tremendous legacy. If you seek a career that’s far from ordinary, relish challenges, and aspire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in need, this might be the path for you.
To support more trainee teachers in taking this career path, Sunningdale School runs a Teacher Training programme in partnership with a group of high-performing SEND schools in conjunction with Northumbria University.
Our programme differs from non-SEND courses as it is specifically designed for postgraduates who would like to train to teach children with special educational needs. Many of our students are graduate staff working within special needs schools who are seeking a progression route to become fully qualified teachers.
To give you a taste of life in a special needs school and help you decide if working in this fulfilling world is for you, Sunningdale School is hosting an introductory workshop about our teacher training programme. We will take you on a tour of the school and introduce you to our teachers and children. We will also provide you with information about:
- Our training programme – in addition to equipping students to teach in mainstream primary schools, the programme provides a deep understanding of strategies used to support the learning of children with special needs.
- School placements
- The application and interview process
- Our mentoring provision
- The accreditation process
- Career opportunities
- Accessing loans and funding
The sessions are informal, and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to ask any questions you may have.
This workshop is free, but places are limited, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Event Details
Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) is linked to an extreme need to avoid everyday demands and opportunities. Some of the distinctive features of the profile are around high levels of anxiety, using social means to avoid, resisting the ordinary demands and excessive mood swings. The need for control in all areas is a prominent feature which can appear dominating. High levels of support are required along with specific strategies to engage.
This online session will benefit:
- Staff working with, or wanting to work with students in the SEND field
- Parents/carers wanting to learn more about Pathological Demand Avoidance
During the session, delegates will develop their basic understanding and knowledge of PDA, including the various barriers and challenges students may face in the classroom. They will leave with a secure understanding of how to support and aid learning.
By the end of the session, delegates will have:
- An understanding of PDA
- An awareness of the barriers to learning and the impact of these difficulties
- An awareness of strategies and activities to aid learning
