Wyvern Junior School.

My current work placement is situated at Wyvern junior school, located within Ashford, Kent.

The school is specialised, because it is for children with learning difficulties, and developmental problems. For example:-
Autism. Therefore, many of the children are unable to verbally communicate with others. However, the children are extremely kind, and immediately made me feel welcome! One of the children even held my hand, and hugged me.

I am being provided with excellent experiences within the school, and enjoy assisting the children with their activities, particularly playing in the sandpit. I feel I have gained a real knowledge from this placement.

One of the children regularly lashes out, which was quite frightening at first, because I had several bruises, and scratches! Nevertheless, they were only war wounds.
