Curriculum for Life


What

Each week pupils in Years 7-11 will participate in five 30-minute “Curriculum for Life" sessions. These sessions take place in the middle of the day.

 

Why

We exist to help the help the children, young people, and families in our area to flourish spiritually, academically and personally, so that they experience a long and fulfilling life.

A central part of our Christian Vision is growing in 'stature' - our personal, moral and spiritual development. Because of this, our Curriculum for Life is designed to develop our students personally (e.g. character, interpersonal skills etc) and spiritually (e.g. understanding of self and purpose).

 

How 

We do all things with love; in everything that we do, we try our best to be courageous, to be forgiving, to advance peace and champion equality. 

We work together with staff, students, parents and local organisations to provide the very best Curriculum for Life.

 

 

 

The 5 sessions will comprise of: 

 

Spiritual Development

  • Collective Worship planned and delivered by our Chaplain, students and staff.
  • Based around our school values of Love, Peace, Forgiveness, Courage and equality.
