[edit] Curriculum
Every child is entitled to a broad curriculum which meets his individual learning needs. Importantly, it is recognised that whilst much of what is taught is laid down within the National Curriculum, it is vital to develop skills which will be needed for a lifetime of learning. These skills will equip your son to enter a competitive job market and will give him a framework in which to make use of freedom to make the right choices about his life.
Subjects studied will be English, Maths, Science, Religious Education, Technology, Information Technology, Geography, History, Modern Languages, Art, Drama, Music and PE.
We are fortunate that, as a boys school the environment can be created to develop the skills and knowledge, at which in mixed schools, boys under-perform.
A broad range of relevant learning opportunities is offered at both Key Stage 3 and 4 which aim to enable:
The development of full academic potential Support for the development of literacy, numeracy and ICT skills The development of the skills needed to continue learning independently as an adult. The development of a team spirit
