School Curriculum
The Progress Schools curriculum is bespoke, diverse and lively and designed to inspire learning in small steps but most of all, its purposeful and entrenched in work towards further qualifications to support positive futures. We take the time to work with the whole student and identify any barriers towards success, this may be anxiety or additional needs. We work alongside local work placements and companies offering work experience so that students can try out their chosen career and work towards additional qualifications towards this.

Our students observed #RemembranceDay this year by taking the time to create poems and decorate poppies, honouring those loved and lost. One of our teachers at PS Lilford performed The Last Post before all joining in a minute's silence. #lestweforget

Your @cubbiesensoryhub experience begins here! Since introducing this sensory regulation space to #ProgressSchools Lilford, Wigan, our students have been able to immerse themselves into a personalised, disruption free environment. Students are in full control, setting the tone of their experience from calming to energised, selecting the music and scenery that calls to them, with the choice of 5 to 15 minutes of relaxation. A great way to reduce stress during the school day. #AlternativeProvision #nationalstressawarenessday
Happy Halloween to all our staff and students!🎃👻
