Our KS3 classes stay in thier own classrooms and are taught by the same teacher for the majority of their lessons. Outdoor Education, PE, DT, Animal Care and Food Technology are taught to all KS3 classes in specialist classrooms by specialist staff. All lessons are designed to give pupils pathways into KS4 options.
For Lessons 5 & 6 on a Friday afternoon, children access activities based on their effort points scored for each lesson during the week and also have a key stage assembly. Activities include drawing club, book club, computing, football, chess, etc.
