Curriculum
We offer a rich and inspiring curriculum enabling each individual to explore their potential, build on their strengths and discover their passion. We do this by embedding a culture of respect, responsibility, resourcefulness and resilience. Our curriculum journey empowers students to make successful life choices and meaningful contributions to society.
There are five key principles underpinning the design of the curriculum:
- It is a broad and balanced curriculum that is appropriately challenging.
- The curriculum addresses and rebalances some of the local area inequalities.
- It is inclusive and differentiated to meet individual needs of students.
- There is a strong emphasis on English and Mathematics to ensure basic skills are embedded at an early stage to allow students to access the wider curriculum.
- The curriculum ensures that students have equal access to support and enrichment opportunities to enhance their curriculum experience
