Teaching and learning

Our experienced teachers create a flexible, agile environment for our students where they can learn at their own pace and in a way that makes sense for them.

Each student has a learning pathway, tailored to them from the subjects on offer in Peterborough. Our Virtual Learning Environment and dedicated SEND provision create a well-rounded and adaptable educational setting.

A typical day at In Toto Peterborough

​

Students follow a personalised timetable that caters to their individual needs and interests.

The day begins with a warm welcome from our dedicated staff, who work closely with each student, checking in with them regularly throughout the day. This ensures student wellbeing and builds strong relationships with teachers and support staff.

During break and lunch times, pupils can access a variety of spaces including a gym, common room, sensory room, art room, and outdoor areas where they can play sports and engage in recreational activities. These spaces are designed to provide a well-rounded experience, allowing our students to explore their interests, recharge, and develop essential life skills.

Wellbeing

​

At the heart of our approach is a deep commitment to supporting the overall well-being of each student. We understand that for many of our students, developing self-confidence, self-esteem, and healthy relationships can be just as important as academic progress. That's why our highly trained staff use specialised techniques like the Zones of Regulation to help students better understand and manage their emotions.

Our nurturing environment is designed to foster a strong sense of belonging and connection. Each student is assigned a key worker who serves as their primary point of contact, ensuring excellent communication between the school and the family.

The sensory room and other specialised spaces provide calming, enriching experiences that help students regulate their emotions and engage more fully in their learning. By empowering our pupils to take an active role in their own learning, we're able to build autonomy and a positive attitude towards education. Whether it's choosing their own learning pathway, participating in community-based activities, or simply voicing their needs, our students are encouraged to advocate for themselves and develop the skills they'll need to thrive in the world beyond our school.

A big part of how you learn is having excellent teachers!
