Curriculum

The intention of our curriculum is to provide a good quality, holistic and nurturing education that focuses on three key areas: acceptance, nurture and inspiration.  It focuses on re-engaging students’ by placing them at the centre of planning and the delivery of lessons, ensuring they feel a valued part of the school and local community and are well supported and cared for through strong relationships between staff and students.

 

The curriculum provides a wide variety of subjects and enrichment experiences giving all students the opportunity to achieve their potential. The curriculum aims to increase all students’ confidence and self-esteem to enable them to be successful in their preparation for adulthood, as they progress onto their post-16 options. The curriculum is broad, balanced, creative and is tailored to meet the individual needs of the learners.

 

The curriculum strives to give all pupils the best chance of succeeding in their adult lives, the content is well designed, informative, and aspirational to all students, thus ensuring they will be well prepared to access the appropriate opportunities for their next destination following The Nest School.
