Resources

Our pupils experience a wide range of approaches and activities on a daily basis. Please read below to find out more about some of these approaches/activities.

Tac Pac 

Our pupils are given the opportunity to experience Tac Pac throughout the school week. For some pupils this can be as often as daily. This is a sensory communication resource using touch and music to help communication and social skills.
