ARC SERVICES

ARC offers an enhanced education programme of social communication and therapeutic learning activities for pupils aged 4-19 and is largely delivered on sites away from the child’s school. The programme is led and managed by an ASC specialist teacher and a team of experienced ASC Workers. ARC’s core aim is to support schools in their endeavour to design and implement effective learning provision for an individual ASC/SCID affected pupil.

The concept of an ARC intervention has developed and grown steadily over the last few years. We offer the following programmes:

• ARC Headlands: KS1/KS2 Structured Teaching/therapy/Social Communication skills.
• ARC Sparkle: KS2 Girls: social communication skills /PHSE
• ARC Liberty: KS3/4 Girls: social communication skills/PHSE
