Key Stage 4
Years 10 to 11 are important years in preparing students for external examinations and for further education or apprenticeships. All students follow the core subjects of English Language, English Literature, Maths, Combined Science, Religious Studies and core PE. Additional elements such as British Values, Personal Development and SMSC are also covered as part of students’ wider curriculum.
The curriculum at Key Stage 4 is personalised to suit the needs, abilities and career pathways of individual students, providing a range of GCSE, BTEC and vocational course choices.
To enable this personalisation we provide three different curriculum pathways- The EBacc, Core and Engage pathways. Students are allocated to a pathway based on their Key Stage 2 Standardised Scores, progress data and any other relevant information.
