We offer an individual learning plan for all our students, whereby we work with host schools or the local authority to provide a timetable that blends into the students overall curriculum.
As a part time provision, we offer a blended plan taking into consideration the school on rolls requirements and other provisions whereby the students attend.
Overall, we believe that all children should have a bespoke education package and the opportunity to receive a varied and rewarding timetable.

At Cirque, we ensure that minimum core subjects are taught throughout all courses by blending functional skills into core paperwork. Maths as a standalone subject is available as Functional Skills at Levels 1 and 2. Schools who wish to refer students for Maths can do so, Maths is delivered in short 1-1 sessions, using workbooks.
Reading and writing comprehension is blended throughout our courses and tasks often include reading and following instruction. We offer Functional Skills English, levels 1 & 2. English is taught as blended learning and 1-1 in workbooks and exercises.
We offer a range of courses under ASDAN, these are flexible short courses within PHSE, vocational subjects and some core subject knowledge. We believe that all students are different and hence create an individual learning plan for each student, in agreement with their school and dependant on number of days on site.
