The AJA Knowledge Centre represents a collaborative effort, involving the school, family and community in developing an appropriate inclusive educational programme. At our core we aim to meet the varying needs of all students identified as having Special Educational Needs (SEN) by modifying the curriculum and equipping the students with self-management skills, so that they are better able to access the curriculum. Cultural, Islamic and Tarbeya values are deeply embedded into all our approaches.
Through a well-structured system of Referrals, Assessments and Provisions, the SEN team intervene at the earliest stage in order to accommodate the needs of each student. Thus ensuring that individual students are supported throughout their educational journey, securing them opportunities to achieve and become confident members of the wider community.
Pupils enrolled in the Knowledge Centre have access to a range of high quality resources to support them in their learning. Amongst the resources pupils may access is a powerful reading recovery resources developed in the United States - LEXIA Core 5
Lexia Reading Core5 provides explicit, systematic, personalized learning in the six areas of reading instruction. This research-proven, technology-based approach accelerates reading skills development.
Lexia Reading Core5 provides students immediate corrective feedback, multiple levels of scaffolding, and explicit instruction both online and through direct instruction with the teacher. Pupils can also use Lexia at home to support in their learning.
