All schools have to teach the National Curriculum. In going beyond this curriculum we look to provide situations that will enhance learning. Throughout the year there are visits to help students use the local environment or local sources in their studies.
Language exchanges are well established.
These involve students visiting other countries and experiencing life in our twin schools in France and Germany. In Year 9 all students attend a three day camp. This involves activities such as abseiling, canoeing, climbing and light weight camping. This is designed to teach leadership, problem solving and team work. Learning outside the classroom is equally important.
