At Park Way, every child is 'special' and deserves the very best.  Regardless of their needs or abilities, our staff plan exciting lessons that motivate, inspire and challenge ALL children ALL of the time.

 

We are extremely lucky at Park Way and we have built a large staff team, each with different skills and areas of expertise; because of this, we are in a very fortunate position to offer many 'interventions' across the school to challenge and extend the children's learning further and enable them to achieve the very best they can.

 

So that we can meet all children's learning needs appropriately, we hold Pupil Progress Meetings every term where the Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher, SENCO, class teachers and teaching assistants meet to discuss the progress of every child in the school.  From these meetings, we plan for children to receive specific interventions that will support them with their learning and help them to make accelerated progress. 

At Park Way, we run the following interventions:
