Juniper

Juniper is a specialist class catering for pupils with complex learning needs and as such requires a high level of personalised learning with a higher staff to pupil ratio.

At Manor Green we understand that children with complex learning needs achieve their potential and feel happy when their environment, learning, communication and routines are structured and personalised to meet their individual needs.

We believe that a consistent approach to teaching and learning, engaging classroom environments and cross-curricular use of visual supports enable the pupils to be independent and engage in learning. The activities throughout the school day are structured around a highly individual and personalised timetable which is child led and tailored to the child’s needs.

Children follow the Semi-formal curriculum pathway that is relevant, broad and balanced to their needs. Each class follows a thematic approach to teaching and learning which changes half termly.  The curriculum focuses on four key areas Cognition and Learning (including Reading, Writing, Number, Shape, Space and Measures and Computing), Communication and Interaction, Physical and Sensory and SEMH.

In addition, children have access to a multi-sensory programme including use of the light and sound room, sensory circuits, outdoor learning environments and therapies. All children have Personalised Learning Goals (PLGs) which help develop skills that promote world ready children.

Individual children are assessed by the Occupational Therapist for sensory integration programmes which area implemented throughout the school day.

Dance to make a Difference!

Manor Green Primary School/College and the Friends of Manor Green are delighted to announce a very unique fundraising event taking place on the 9th of November from 2:30 pm till 5 pm - Dance to make a Difference! Following the previous successes of Light up the Night, we have decided to go bigger and better than ever before. We are looking to raise funds for some communication resources to be used throughout both schools enabling students to use these resources throughout their time and journey at Manor Green. We have found 9 incredibly talented, wonderful and kind dancers that have chosen to give up their Saturday, travel to our wonderful school to meet everybody and put on a show for all of us! So let’s put on a show for them and prove exactly why Manor Green is so special. This will be an afternoon of superb music and even better dancing and there’s no need to know a single step! Anything goes! The door is open to everyone we have tickets to cover it all - Adults, under 16s, carers and spectators, so if you want to just sit and tap along with your feet or you want to dance like no one is watching we’re here for it all!!! Every single penny raised through ticket sales will come directly to school and fund this wonderful project. But we can’t do this without you! So please consider grabbing the kids, the grandparents, the neighbours, even the postman if you like and let’s lift the roof off Manor Green and show everyone what makes us the community we are.  Any questions? Please contact Laura at friends@mgprimary.co.uk. Please see attached poster QR code and booking link for tickets. Thank you once again for your continued support the friends of Manor Green.
