Our aspirational Personal Development Curriculum (PDC) supports our academy vision and helps our students thrive and build success beyond the purely academic curriculum by developing them across 6 strands.
Our outstanding PDC is delivered through our tutor time, assembly, PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic education), careers and enrichment programmes and through the way that we interact with our students every day. It is also informed by the work of our behaviour and student welfare teams to ensure that it prepares students to thrive in our local context.
Your health and safety
|
Your relationships | Your careers |
Your enrichment
|
Your voice | Your character and values |
Further information on these 6 strands is below.
Students know how to stay mentally and physically healthy and safe. |
Students are exposed to a range of enriching experiences, helping them to thrive now and in the future. |
Students experience a range of careers and know how to reach their aspirations. |
Students know how to create and maintain healthy relationships and can confidently seek support when they recognise unhealthy relationships. |
Self-aware students know how to confidently and respectfully express their well-informed opinions and listen to those of others' in order to agree with or challenge them. |
Students respect, uphold and promote UK Law and British Values and the school values and develop excellent character. |
