Our Curriculum

Our Curriculum Introduction

A Specialised Approach for Students with Autism

At Baskerville School, we understand that our students with autism spectrum disorder have unique learning styles, strengths, and needs. Our curriculum represents the complete learning journey of each student, encompassing not just academic progress, but vital social, emotional, and developmental growth.

Tailored Learning Experiences

Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to:

• Accommodate diverse starting points and experiences

• Provide enriching cultural and social opportunities through our Baskerville Pledge

• Maintain breadth and depth of learning experiences

• Support transitions to college placements and independent living

• Develop life skills for meaningful community participation

• Our Commitment to Students with Autism

We believe every student deserves:

Access to diverse opportunities promoting academic, social, emotional, and physical development
Autism-specific, empathetic teaching approaches
An autism-friendly learning environment that reduces sensory challenges
Personalized choices and appropriate challenges that build on individual strengths and special interests

Working Together
Every member of our school community is equally valued. We work collaboratively with:

Parents and carers who understand their children best
Specialists who provide additional expertise
The wider community that enriches our students' experiences

Our Ultimate Goal
We create a supportive framework that:

Celebrates individual achievements, however small they may seem
Promotes gradual integration into the wider community
Prepares students for fulfilling, independent lives after school

At Baskerville School, we don't just teach students with autism—we understand, accept, and celebrate them.
