To facilitate a smooth transition to secondary school we operate an extensive transition programme with our feeder schools. This is led by our pastoral team who will visit all students in their family setting along with bespoke small group and individual orientation and acclimatisation days.
Classes in Key Stage 3 are mixed ability groups with lessons differentiated, to ensure all students are working at an appropriate level and can make real progress. When necessary, intervention sessions are also offered to further develop students’ skills and ensure all students make progress.
Lessons such as Art, Food Technology, Design Technology and Science are taught by subject specialist teachers in the specialist rooms
