Oakfield Park School
Pathways
At Oakfield Park School we have two pathways running from Key Stage 3 into Key Stage 4 and then Post 16.
Informal Pathway
Our informal pathway is for our most complex learners. They will be working on a multisensory curriculum based around engagement and their interests. Learners require a higher level of adult support, both for their learning needs and their personal care, and are likely to need sensory stimulation with their curriculum broken down into very small steps. Some of our learners communicate by gesture, eye-pointing, and at times very simple language.
Student on this pathway may have PMLD or Complex needs on their EHCP.
