CREATIVE LEARNING FOR STUDENTS WITH COMPLEX NEEDS
The Arts Team is working in partnership with teachers and students at Eileen O’Connor Catholic College Lewisham which provides education for students with moderate intellectual disabilities and other complex learning needs. These workshops have a positive impact on students’ learning and their social and emotional wellbeing.
The program runs throughout the year and engages students in a variety of dance experiences which utilise the senses, are student-centred and ultimately teach fundamental life skills. CaSPA workshops at the college help students meet mandatory curriculum requirements for the Life Skills course.
“It has been an invaluable experience for all our students…we are all proud of how far they have come.” Teacher
