Mutual Respect

We promote inclusion for all students by ensuring that they have access to the activities, settings, and locations that are appropriate to their individual needs. We do this by working with a range of people, including students from other schools such as the Buddy Readers programme with Pilton Bluecoats and Pilton College, running the weekly café in the local library and the Memory café once a month supporting those living with dementia or memory problems. We also personalise the curriculum for each student and plan for them to transition into different settings, such as going into the community to participate in sports events e.g. the Sentient Swimming Gala, Pilton Mile and community events e.g. Barnstaple Pride Event.

The staff work closely with parents carers and other professionals to ensure that the students at Pathfield school are happy, well cared for and enabled to learn the skills they need to live a fulfilling life as part of their community.
