Designated Special Provision (DSP)

Designated Special Provision

At Yew Tree, we are able to offer a unique specialist provision for pupils with all ranges of learning difficulties. This means Yew Tree is able to ensure all learners across all spectrums of education needs are able to meet their full potential.

Our DSP Classes

The Designated Specialist Provision consists of 3 classes which cater for children who have a special educational need, specifically Autism, and present with Communication and Interaction, Cognition and Learning and Sensory Needs.

A great emphasis is placed in all classes on providing a safe, caring and happy environment which enables and encourages each child to develop his/her potential.

Classroom organisation and teaching methods take account of the individual learning requirements of the pupils and various strategies and techniques are used throughout the DSP by highly skilled and committed staff who work very much as a team.

The DSP follows a unique curriculum entitled ‘Curriculum Around the Pupil’ (CAP)– please see the curriculum section below for more details.
