Welcome to our Yellow Corridor




- OPENING September 2023: Our 5th Autism Class: for Junior/Senior Infants

- EARLY INTERVENTION Class OPENED September 2022

Classes
Here in Midleton CBS Primary School we decided that every corridor would have a colour assigned to it and each classroom on each corridor would have a name associated with that designated colour. Our Yellow Corridor is where we have our four classrooms for autistic children and these classrooms are called:
- An Spreach - The Spark
- Junior Infant Class: OPENING September 2023
- An Solas- The Light
- An Ghrian- The Sun
- An Realt- The Star

In each class the children are supported in an environment of a maximum of a 6:1 ratio of pupils to teacher and they are further supported through the allocation of two SNAs per class. Each member of staff is trained and experienced in using a variety of methodologies, approaches and techniques allowing us to support our children even further depending on what best caters to the needs of each individual child. Our aim is to help each child develop and reach their full potential in a holistic manner.
We also strive to create the highest possible levels of inclusion and promote understanding, acceptance and appreciation of all children. Opportunities for inclusion are availed of when and wherever possible. This inclusion happens formally and informally, both in the playground and in the classroom environment providing many opportunities for each child to develop academically, socially and emotionally.
Every child in the centre has access to
- individual learning stations
- opportunities to participate in mainstream classroom activities and classes
- quiet zones
- our gym area
- our multi sensory equipment
- our sensory room
- our outdoor play area
- highly trained and supportive staff
- our life skills room
- outings eg trips to the library, local playground, cafes, cinema etc
- swimming classes
- and much, much more
