The MOVE Programme
The Move Programme is a philosophy, a way of life for disabled children, and disabled people with complex needs; providing the personalised care and support they need to gain functional mobility, and increased independence
Put simply, the Move Programme is a practice put in place so disabled children and disabled people with complex needs are supported to gain the physical and communication skills they need in order to:
• SIT to eat, participate in activities, education and eventual employment
• STAND to increase strength, mobility and flexibility
• WALK to participate in play or complete tasks, with and without support
• TRANSITION from bed to chair or sitting to standing.
At St Nicholas, students who have a MOVE programme in place will practise their individual tasks and targets daily. However, we also have bespoke weekly MOVE sessions; where we work in collaboration with our Physios, OTs and SaLTs to deliver topic based sessions that encourage the students to practise and show off their skills.
