The curriculum of our school is a reflection of our school ethos, vision and ambition. We seek to develop the whole child so that they can access all that life can offer. This means that in addition to the explicit curriculum that ultimately leads to external certification, we seek to develop lifelong learners who are spiritually, culturally, digitally and financially literate, in addition to understanding how to remain healthy and safe through their lifestyle choices. Our Quality First Teaching Principles: - Highly focused lesson design with sharp learning objectives - High demands of pupil involvement and engagement with their learning - High levels of interaction for all pupils - Appropriate use of questioning, modelling and explaining on the part of the teacher - An emphasis on learning through dialogue, with regular opportunities for pupils to talk both individually and in groups - An expectation that pupils will accept responsibility for their own learning and work independently - Regular use of encouragement and authentic praise to engage and motivate pupils Science Curriculum vision / Intent: The science curriculum provides the foundations for understanding the world through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics. Science has changed our lives and is vital to the world’s future prosperity, and all pupils will be taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. Through building up a body of key foundational knowledge and concepts, pupils will be encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. They will be encouraged to understand how science can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will behave, and analyse causes. Science Curriculum impact To have shaped young minds to: • be methodical in their approach to science and the wider world • apply their scientific knowledge to help solve challenges (scientific or otherwise) • ask questions about the world around them • understand the uses and implications of science, today and in the future.
In order to study subjects at Advanced Level (A-Level) you need to have achieved at least 5 Level 9 - 4 including Maths and English and have met the specific entry requirements of the subjects you wish to study.
