Our Curriculum Structure
Sommerville has 2 curricula to meet the learning needs of our learners aged 5 to 21.
The expanded and adapted New Zealand curriculum for students aged from 5 up to 14 years of age.
The Transition Curriculum caters for students aged 14-21 years.
Both curricula at Sommerville are structured into 3 phases of learning. These are Explore, Discover and Navigate.

The curriculum at Sommerville covers all 8 Learning Areas.
