Badger

We are lucky to have a SEND and interventions classroom at The Oaktree School. Badger Room is a quiet and calm environment where some children spend small proportions of their day for a range of learning experiences. 

This includes: 

• Specific SEND interventions such as Attention Bucket and Sensory circuits
• Relaxation and therapy time
• Sensory lighting opportunities 
• 1:1 work with external agencies or specialist therapists
• Academic intervention to close the gap and promote progress

As well specific activities and interventions, we use Badger Room for our Lunch Club. Lunch Club offers a safe, quiet environment for children with additional or specific eating or social needs to eat their lunch and learn how the life skills around food and eating. Lunch Club has a high ratio of adults to pupils to ensure these life skills can be taught successfully. 

Lunch Club also provides a smaller area for play and group games to develop social interaction and friendship building before joining the main school play grounds.
