Pre - School Specialist Support Service - Phoenix Pre School

The four classes at the phoenix Pre-School provide part-time placements for children with a wide range of severe or complex needs. All classes offer warm and caring environment with high quality, intensive and rigorous assessment and intervention. One class is dedicated to proving a low arousal environment with structures and routines specifically designed to suit the needs of a number of our children diagnosed with significant social communication difficulties. Each class has a qualified teacher and two support assistants. We also have dual workers who are trained to work in the classrooms as support assistants and support children who have nursing needs. Most children attend for two full days a week. Whilst attending the phoenix Pre-School, children are able to use the many facilities within the Centre. These include the soft play area, a sensory room, hydrotherapy pool, the gym, specially equipped playground and a sensory garden . A speech and language therapist works with all the children and in addition to this, the classrooms are supported by Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, nursing staff and the Sensory Support Service.
