College

Moor House College is the co-educational sixth form provision of Moor House offering both day and weekly residential placements. Students continue to receive individualised Speech and Language Therapy intervention delivered in 1:1 sessions, small groups and direct classroom support. Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, Psychotherapy and Specialist Literacy interventions also continue and are embedded across the curriculum. Students study a broad, balanced and differentiated curriculum, incorporating the requirements of their chosen vocational courses as well as Maths, English and PSHCE qualifications. These are highly modified in language content and presentation, to ensure our students’ significant language needs are met.

“You just have to experience it for yourself to understand the true miracle that this school and college holds.”

Quote from current college student, 2019

Students have the opportunity to undertake work experience placements and follow a study skills programme as part of the curriculum. At Moor House College the specialised approaches required to develop language are integrated throughout the whole teaching day supported with a range of specialist visual systems and strategies such as SHAPE CODING ™, Cued Articulation and signing with grammatical markers. All our students have an individualised therapeutic programme of life and social skills as well as independence training which operates across the week and into the evenings, working towards becoming independent adults.
