Liverpool Progressive School

[EduCativ]

Liverpool Progressive School offers education and support for young people under 19 with a range of conditions, disabilities, and complex support needs.
Liverpool Progressive School helps children towards a better future by providing the highest quality of education where inclusion, enrichment, and progression enable achievement for all children by focusing on their specific and complex needs.
The curriculum is planned to promote individual and group learning opportunities via a full range of experiences and activities that are appropriate to each student’s age, entitlement, needs, abilities, and choice.
Particular emphasis is placed on the National Curriculum, communication, and self-directed behavior strategies for a lifelong learning program. Wherever possible we aim to provide access and inclusion opportunities to mainstream education and other community-based leisure and social activities geared towards the promotion of independent living.
Most students enter Liverpool Progressive School with a Statement of Special Educational Needs or Education, Health and Care Plan providing the basis for their Individual Education Plan and Individual Learning Plan. This is a tool by which the school establishes what and how targets are to be achieved. In addition to educational targets, other development parameters are set, monitored, and reviewed regularly.
Liverpool Progressive School strives to promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, social, emotional, and physical development of all students in school and society. Through themed weeks a selected theme is threaded throughout the curriculum to promote and develop this entitlement.
Our overarching aim at Liverpool Progressive School is to provide the highest quality education where inclusion, enrichment, and progression enable personal achievement for all students in preparation for the responsibilities, experiences, and opportunities of adult life (with appropriate levels of support).

Gardening is a great enabler, providing opportunities for everyone to take part, to learn, and to enjoy time together. Gardening can strengthen relationships between teachers and pupils as they work together, sharing skills to improve their environment.
