Donaldson's promotes a 'Curriculum for Excellence'. Our curricular
framework supports all children and young people from 2½ to 19 to
develop as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible
citizens and effective contributors, ready to play a full part in society,
both now and in the future.
With appropriate support and bilingual teaching, we ensure that the
curriculum is accessible to all of our pupils. Each pupil has both an
Individual Education Programme and a Communication Profile. This
tailored approach allows pupils to follow the National Curriculum and
achieve National Qualifications (Scotland), as appropriate.
To help pupils to become more independent, Donaldson's also has a
dedicated Life Skills programme for young people aged 16-19. The unit
helps to prepare them for the transition into further education, work
experience and/or employment. We accept both current and new pupils
on to this programme.
