Functional Learning Approach

The Functional Learning Approach is Five Acre Wood’s Sixth Form provision, for pupils aged 16-19.  Our learning approach caters for pupils of all needs, and we are proud of the social integration and individualised approach our pupils receive. A number of different, flexible pathways exist for pupils within the learning approach, enabling them to work on skills, gain knowledge and achieve accreditations relevant to their own next steps. The whole school works to nurture and maximise the potential of each and every individual and celebrate their achievements. The Functional Learning Approach represents the culmination of those efforts as pupils take their final steps towards future colleges, specialist provisions, employment and living as independently as possible. We aim to prepare pupils for life using an age appropriate approach tailored to their personal interests, skills and needs.
