Key Stage 4 Subjects

• KEY STAGE 4 CURRICULUM INTRODUCTION

Our curriculum at Key Stage 4 is designed to provide students with a broad, balanced and flexible curriculum that inspires and challenges them to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes that will prepare them for their post-16 studies and, ultimately, for a successful and fulfilling working life in 21st Century Britain. The curriculum is underpinned by the desire to maximise achievement whilst allowing students to enjoy learning. We pride ourselves on the breadth of opportunity available to our students, our excellent academic standards and our extremely supportive system of pastoral care. As a school we are committed to nurturing the talents of all, thus our curriculum has been designed to be flexible enough to allow us to provide additional support and extra challenge for those who need it.

The school week is organised into thirty 50-minute periods as shown in the table below.
In addition, students register in their tutor groups once a day.
