Team Domenica Curriculum Policy

Easy Read

Our curriculum is the plan we have to help you get meaningful experience of work. We will work with you to set targets that are right for you, and which will help you to learn practical and classroom skills. We will also help you develop the confidence, independence and communication skills that you need for the next steps in your journey.

 

YEAR ONE is the Supported Employment Programme. We call this SEP. The timetable will have these things each week:

Team Domenica classroom

 

In our classroom you will learn functional skills and the skills that you need for being in work.

English and maths books

 

Functional Skills include Maths, English and Communication. You will learn at your own pace and work towards qualifications.

You will also spend time in our cafes learning practical skills and customer service.

Symbols of people connected into a network with the word "relationships" over it

 

In Relationship, Sex and Health Education you will learn about relationships, healthy choices and keeping safe.

Candidates in the community at Enrichment

 

Enrichment helps develop your communication and teamwork skills through activities in the community.

Careers Education helps you plan for paid work by visiting careers events and meeting employers.
