Key Stage 4 Curriculum
The aims of our curriculum are:
- To provide a balanced, accessible and relevant range of learning experiences
- To know our pupils-their strengths, interests and needs-and to use this to personalise an offer for them
- To develop our pupils as learners and as people such that they are confident and able to secure meaningful and relevant post 16 destinations
- To provide our pupils with the most up to date information, advice and guidance on CEIAG and RSE and health information
- To offer a flexible, holistic teaching and learning approach in and out of school
