Special educational needs

We work extensively with children with special educational needs from eight years of age and upwards. These include children with learning, physical and sensory impairments.

We provide a safe and nurturing environment where they can learn the practical skills of mosaic making, working on their own projects or contributing as part of a team to our public realm projects.

We help each child to write an individual learning plan to capture their own goals and intentions and regularly review the plan with them to make sure focus is maintained.
