A small, supportive<br />

learning environment.<br />

ADVERTISING FEATURE<br />

For some children, larger schools and<br />

classrooms can mean reduced teacher<br />

interaction, elevated noise and an<br />

increased chance of disruption which<br />

can create barriers to learning.<br />

Slindon College’s ‘Keep it small, know them all’ ethos enables<br />

staff to get to know their pupils helping them to re-engage with<br />

learning in order to reach their full potential.<br />

Small class sizes lead to more one-on-one attention for<br />

the pupil.<br />

Teachers get to know each pupil as an individual, working with<br />

them to enhance their strengths and improve their weaknesses.<br />

This customized approach gives pupils access to learning on<br />

their level.<br />

The Specialist Teachers continuously liaise with Subject Teachers<br />

to disseminate useful individualised strategies which are then<br />

implemented across the whole College.<br />

Learning is more hands-on.<br />

In a smaller class, pupils have increased opportunity for handson<br />

learning, allowing them to experience the subjects they<br />

are learning about rather than just being told about it. This is<br />

especially beneficial for pupils who learn better by doing rather<br />

than just listening.<br />

The multisensory and augmentative teaching facilities allow<br />

for practical learning as well as quiet, independent reflection<br />

dependent on the needs of the pupil.<br />

Sixth Formers are offered a bespoke timetable. Through work<br />

experience placements, life skills courses and building links<br />

with local further education providers, the boys are given the<br />

experience necessary to make the transition to the wider world a<br />

positive one.<br />

Pupils feel valued and understood.<br />

In large schools and classrooms, the number of pupils can<br />

be intimidating, but in smaller environments pupils can grow<br />

in confidence. Pupils at Slindon College are given time to<br />

contribute, making them feel valued and respected.<br />

Slindon College provides Social and Emotional Aspects of<br />

Learning for pupils that need help with self-awareness, selfregulation,<br />

motivation, empathy and social skills.<br />
