The Redwood Unit - Local Authority based Provision

Local Authority Based Provision

The Redwood Unit: 

Squirrels and Foxes

In the Summer of 2023, we opened a local authority provision at Cutenhoe Hill Primary School for children with complex learning needs.

The unit caters for children with levels well below expected levels (at least half their chronological age).

This could include children with a diagnosis such as:

  • SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) difficulties
  • Communication and interaction difficulties eg: ASD
  • Sensory Impairment Difficulties
  • Cognition and Learning Difficulties
  • Complex behaviour patterns

All children in the provision must have an EHCP issued by the local authority.

What is an (EHCP) Education, Health and Care plan?

An Education, Health and Care plan is a legal and personalised document. It sets out the education, health and social care needs of a child or young person aged 0 to 25 years old with special educational needs or disabilities.

The children in The Redwood Unit follow a bespoke curriculum based around speech and language needs and a topic-based approach to develop:

  • Outdoor schooling
  • Independence
  • Play and Leisure
  • The World About Us
  • Physical Well-being
