Communication and Social Interaction

Communication is the most important aspect of learning for our children at Discovery Academy. We prioritise the development of communication skills alongside supporting social interaction.

Communication as a curriculum area includes subjects such as:

  • Thrive
  • Discover Me
  • Therapies

Social Interaction Curriculum

Some young people can find social interactions and relationships difficult to understand intuitively. Specific tools and techniques are used to help children understand social situations in context. This may include; increasing social understanding, managing own behaviour, building up skills and confidence in dealing with specific social situations.
