The content of our curriculum changes intentionally to support students’ learning journeys across all of the key stages. Students have an increasing amount of choice in their curriculum studies as they get older, particularly in Year 11, when students select their subjects for Key Stage 5 study. Please see Appendix A in the ‘Curriculum and Assessment policy’ for further detail about the Key Stage 4 curriculum overview and structure.

The Key Stage 4 curriculum broadens to include the additional subjects of Citizenship, Health and Social Care, Business Studies, Enterprise and Statistics, as well as the development of leadership skills through the selection of either the ‘Sports Leaders’ or the ‘Dance Leaders’ awards or the ‘Duke of Edinburgh’ award (Bronze).

The individual subject pages explain the principles of intent, implementation and impact in the design of our Key Stage 4 curriculum.
