Overview
Pegasus School is an independent specialist day and residential school for young people aged 7 - 19 years with moderate to severe learning difficulties, autism and associated challenging behaviour. Many of students also have associated mental health and therapy needs.
The School is situated in the grounds of Caldwell Hall; five miles from Burton on Trent on the borders of Staffordshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire.
Curriculum
Our curriculum is not subject specific for all young people, some are learning within the early stages of development. Each young person will have a different priority of needs and so some subjects will focus more predominantly than others, as planned by the school teaching and therapy teams.
We use the EQUALS schemes of work to inform our curriculum offer. This is designed for young people working below national age-related expectations, and is based on their developmental stage not necessarily their key stage. The curriculum develops the young person’s next steps in independence in preparation for their future.
