Once a week pupils in the Upper School run the school cafe. This is an opportunity for pupils to apply skills and knowledge they have learnt throughout the school and apply it in a vocational based approach to learning. Pupils have the opportunity to use their communication skills to take orders, implement their cooking and life skills by preparing the food / toasties ready for the lunch time. They then take money for the items and exchange this for the food items. The impact of the cafe has meant that Watling View are going to further develop and enhance this area of the curriculum during the 2022 - 2023 academic year.
