My name is Finn and my Biddick journey has been exciting from the start. I was lucky to have lots of transition from my primary school before I started Biddick academy.
Due to my Autism, I have a place within the Unity Centre, which is a specialist provision within Biddick Academy where I go for additional support, or small intervention lessons. I can also use the Unity Centre for time-out away from mainstream school to self-regulate; this is a safe, happy place where I can also spend social times and lunch times with my friends.
I receive extra support in my lessons, alongside other students with additional needs. This helps to build my confidence and helps me focus on my work. Support staff are also there to help me resolve any issues I have, and they also support me to develop my social skills and to help me develop my independence.
During my time at Biddick I have participated in some residential school trips which I really enjoyed. These trips also helped me build my resilience and tolerance of new experiences.
Biddick Academy is an inclusive school where all students are supported and differences are celebrated. In my final year, I will be receiving support to help me choose the right college for me, hopefully to study hospitality and catering.
I feel lucky to have been a part of the Biddick Academy family and I appreciate all the support I have had from teachers and support staff.
