Physical Development

Students are given opportunities to move to music, use equipment, develop, and practise their fine and gross motor skills. They develop an increasing understanding of how their body works, what is needed to be healthy and how to take care of themselves. This is done both indoors and outdoors and by working with a wide range of resources including ‘Funky Fingers’ - a programme to support Fine Motor Skills. Occupational and Speech and Language therapy also work closely alongside class teachers to ensure the relevant ASC strategies are in place for our students, such as supporting the development of their fine and gross motor skills.
