Teacher's creativity gives PMLD pupils new lease of life
One of our phenomenal teachers at Castle School is helping her pupils with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) to take miraculous steps towards a better, more independent way of living by getting creative with items typically found around the house.
Gillian Robinson has introduced the concept of ‘Active Learning’ into her classroom to help give a sense of freedom back to pupils who are typically dependent on those around them to support their needs.
Using everyday items such as buckets, A-frames, Tupperware boxes, blackout curtains and plumber’s piping, Gillian has created a sensory paradise for her learners to support their mobility and cognitive skill development, alongside their emotional and social wellbeing.
