The Key Stage 3 curriculum follows the National Curriculum, with teaching adapted to meet the needs of individual students.  

 

Teachers use a mix of instructional teaching and enquiry-based learning to build independence, confidence and an enjoyment of learning. This approach provides the young person to guide elements of their own learning. Empowering students in this way often provides an area of interest, and desire to learn which allows our young people to engage fully with their learning. 

 

Our students will cover all aspects of the National Curriculum other than a language-based subject. Students will receive the appropriate taught hours in the identified subjects. All year groups study ‘Home Cooking Skills’ and year 9 students complete a BTEC qualification at either level 1 or 2.
