Our curriculum prepares students for lifelong learning and for the opportunities, responsibilities and challenges of life in the 21st century. Each one of our students is expected to do their best and all achievements are recognised in a positive way through the extensive arrangements for monitoring individual progress. Teachers respond flexibly to the needs of the students because of their capacity to assess how well the students understand the lesson, using a blend of innovative and traditional teaching methods. Students follow a three year Key Stage 3 whereby they experience a very broad range of subjects. Students then have two years to complete a wide range of GCSE (or equivalent) courses. We are proud to share that the class of 2017 achieved some of best results in Staffordshire! Each child is assessed in all subjects every half-term. This ensures that they develop excellent revision techniques. It also allows us to recognise achievements and provide support where necessary.
