Sensory therapy

When children have neurological conditions, it’s absolutely essential that we find alternative ways for them to interact and communicate.

That’s what our sensory suites are all about.

Unique to us, these state of the art rooms give pupils the opportunity to express themselves through touch or art, music or movement, or simply provide a space where children can be calm – away from the usual distractions of school life.

The sensory suites play a central role in every day life at St Piers School.

We find they help to reduce fidgeting, improve concentration and put pupils in a better frame of mind to learn, or carry out a task. They also allow the children to express themselves in ways that may not have been available to them before.
