Curriculum Road Map
Enrichment
It is crucially important to us that students experience new things and are given opportunities that they would not otherwise get. Cultural Capital (from Bourdieu) is embedded across our curriculum. Within our curriculum, all departments provide Cultural Capital opportunities for all pupils to develop aspirational, linguistic, familial, social, navigational, and resistance to enable social mobility for all our pupils.
In addition, every half term there are a range of House competitions and challenges offered by different departments for all key stages, giving our pupils the opportunity to develop our core values, transferable skills and building a passion for lifelong learning.
