Curriculum

We have fully adopted Curriculum for Wales and teach all areas of learning experience through a concept approach. Learners are placed in small teaching groups that are consistent for all aspects of the curriculum. We are commited to ensuring all learners acquire the experiences, knowledge and skills that young people need for employment, lifelong learning and active citizenship. 

 

We deliver learning opportunities in line with the four purposes. In fulfilling these, we set high expectations for all, promote individual and national wellbeing, tackle ignorance and misinformation, and encourage critical and civic engagement. Our school curriculum is at the heart of our work. It is not simply what we teach, but how we teach and crucially, why we teach it.

 

We have focused Language, Literacy and Communication and Maths & Numeracy sessions. These are delivered daily in teaching groups and one to one according to individual need. In addition, gaps in learning are targeted through individual learning programmes. 

 

To complement this, we deliver a ‘Personal Growth’ programme. This enables learners to target specific skills and life experiences. Learners decide the focus and complete badges to demonstrate progress.
