Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to foster thought, curiosity and a desire for learning in all pupils, regardless of their background, strengths and needs. It is ambitious, challenging and engaging. It builds on the essential knowledge, skills and understanding from primary school and enables pupils to become informed citizens who have an appreciation of human creativity, ingenuity and achievement.

Our curriculum draws out key concepts that provide a rich web of knowledge for our pupils and help them to become expert critical thinkers.

Our curriculum aims to:

  • To elevate the life chances and aspirations of all pupils from all backgrounds particularly those from areas of social and economic disadvantage through our STAR values of Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Respect
  • Deliver excellent exam results to transform the educational achievement of our pupils
  • Provide a solid foundation for future learning at every stage
  • Cultivate well-rounded, intelligent and socially aware pupils
  • Mould pupils into good citizens, with an understanding of rules, rights and their responsibilities in society
  • Encourage pupils’ social participation within their community
  • Promote the development and nurturing of young leaders
  • Allow pupils to discover, explore and develop their individuality
  • To promote the physical and mental development and wellbeing of pupils
  • Empower pupils with the necessary skills and abilities to play a full and inclusive role within society, consistent and comfortable with their beliefs and principles
  • To fulfil Trust and statutory requirements.
  • To support the mission, vision and values of the Trust and its establishments.

There are three guiding elements which are brought to life across our curriculum. These are brought to life through our subjects, pastoral support and Personal Development programme:

  1. Educational Excellence
  • A belief that everybody has the potential to succeed within a high quality and intellectually challenging educational environment
  • A commitment to instilling high aspirations, a desire to learn and ambition to achieve
  • A personalised approach to securing excellence, stemming from a passionate belief that each individual is unique and special and capable of rising above any perceived limitations
  1. Character Development

  • A passionate focus on a values-based education that instils honesty, integrity, compassion and mutual respect into all our pupils
  • A strong core of tenacity, self-respect and self-belief that inspires each pupil to become the best person they can be
  1. Service to communities
  • A determination to develop outstanding British citizens who are proud of, and contribute to, the social and economic prosperity of our country
  • A sense of personal accountability and of responsibility to others
  • A commitment to charitable endeavours and to making a difference to our world
