Key Stage 4 Curriculum

Developing skills, knowledge and values

Our Key Stage 4 Curriculum

Our two-year Key Stage 4 provides breadth and depth across at least nine chosen subjects, enabling our ambitious curriculum experience to continue from Key Stage 3 into Key Stage 4.

In years 10 and 11, students choose from a wide range of GCSE and vocational qualifications to pick a study path that is most suited to them. The choice of over 20 available options ensures that whilst all students have a strong academic spine running through their programme of study, there is flexibility to supplement this with a range of practical and arts subjects that align well with their passions and aspirations. This contributes to the excellent achievement of students at KS4 and opens up extensive options post-16 and post-18, alongside progression into a range of career options.

In addition to their selected subjects, students continue their study of the core subjects English, Maths, Science, Physical Education and Religious Education. A bespoke PSHCE programme is delivered to support students in this pivotal period of their lives as they take their first steps towards adulthood.
