Oysters Specialist Resourced Provision (ASD)

Joy Lane Foundation Primary School prides itself on its inclusive practice, supporting children with a wide range of abilities and needs. Set in the heart of our school community, we support children with an Educational, Health, Care Plan (EHCP) and diagnosis of autism within our Oysters Specialist Resourced Provision (SRP). We strongly believe that every child has the right to access a mainstream education and we work closely with parents and staff to adapt and personalise the provision offered to all. We strongly promote integration, both ways, to ensure that the needs of each child are being met. Integration may look different for each individual as timetables are bespoke to each child, taking into account their academic ability, social skills, strengths and interests.

Whilst education is our constant focus, we are true believers in promoting the wellbeing of our children as we recognise that when this is established, the learning will follow. As a result of this, we offer many opportunities to support positive wellbeing, which in addition to daily check-ins and regular communication with home, includes access to our Forest School, sensory room, calming room, swimming pool, outdoor play area and music hub. Oysters is a close community offering support for children who might struggle, or who have struggled in accessing a mainstream setting. Through additional support, focused learning, experienced staff and carefully planned timetabling, the children attending Oysters can access the mainstream setting with increasing success.
