ENGLISH

Each of our units aims to develop a range of key knowledge and skills while mastering a particular skill set. Our units are enriched beyond the key knowledge and skills through the inclusion of wider fiction, non-fiction, poetry, writing, and oracy opportunities. This enrichment is focused on developing a wider schema and cultural capital to support our young people in both their academic achievements and their lives beyond our school.

Vocabulary and literacy are prominent in our curriculum and are used to develop key knowledge and understanding as well as securing our young peoples’ literacy levels. Knowledge and skills have been interleaved within our five year curriculum to ensure students experience the English curriculum in greater depth across each academic year and are given opportunities to secure, revisit and master key knowledge and skills. Ultimately, our curriculum is focused on providing our young people with a life-long love of learning and preparing them for a successful journey into working life.
