We believe that our curriculum must not cap the ambitions of our students and should be based on the principles of challenge and enjoyment; breadth, depth and progression; personalisation and choice; coherence and relevance. Many of our students have failed to engage with the standard curriculum offered in mainstream schools. We are currently adapting our curriculum to make sure it meets the needs of our students and engages them in both their personal and academic learning. We believe our curriculum should lead to a range of qualifications which will enable them to follow college or apprenticeship pathways as appropriate. They should then progress on to the world of work and become independent adults contributing positively to the wider community.
