Students at Key Stage 3 are offered a broad and balanced curriculum, building on their learning experiences from Key Stage 2 and preparing them for the next stage in their journey. There is a wealth of resources available to ensure all students are challenged and supported to fulfil their potential in the first phase of their secondary education. 

Our curriculum is focused on supporting and challenging your child to be the best and to achieve the best that he or she is capable of. Staff prepare lessons to meet the specific needs of the young people in their class, we are proud of our ability to personalise the learning experience in each and every classroom. We work collaboratively to ensure each teacher is able to meet these expectations and teach your children as effectively as possible, whether that be stretch and challenge for the more able to foster the skills and attitudes of resilience and independence, or support and scaffolding resources where needed. Ultimately, we aim to ensure that every child receives Quality First Teaching 100% of the time. We believe that intelligence isn’t fixed – your child can achieve whatever he or she sets their minds to and we will work hard with them to both realise and achieve their goals. 

All students at receive 1 hour every two weeks as part of their Character and Personal Development lessons. These encompass a variety of personal, social and health education alongside curriculum lessons and a detailed form and assembly programme.
