Covid 19 Info CALENDAR NEWS YOUR SPACE SIXTH FORM CURRICULUM A Whole Education Student progress will always remain a key priority because outcomes so often dictate future pathways and opportunities for young people. The curriculum at Hove Park School is not just about the sequencing of lessons and subjects across the Key Stages but also the half termly project days and extra-curricular provision that together enrich and broaden a student’s time at Hove Park. Our vision is about identifying the skills, values and attributes that we believe students should develop during their time with us and the things they will see, hear, try and explore. In essence our vision is to provide a whole education for all our students. Every Child Should Every Child Should is a Hove Park School initiative to ensure that all students get the opportunity to participate in a variety of memorable and enriching experiences as they journey through the school, which in turn will complement and broaden their education. As a school we offer and provide a comprehensive programme of extra-curricular clubs, activities, trips, events and leadership opportunities and have done so for many years.

Students participated in a range of workshops from external companies on genres such as the music and dance of China, African drumming and samba. There were also many classroom-based activities such as using the app Garageband to create music and the Year 7s enjoyed making their own rap music. Our very own Mr Miles and Mr Barbour also organised and led sessions to whole year groups, which students clearly found both fascinating and engaging. Mr Miles’ session, for example, was a very loud samba extravaganza! Students really enjoyed the day and were fully engaged in these enrichment activities which are designed to supplement the breadth and depth of our curriculum offer. The curriculum days later in the year will look to develop these areas, as well as a focus on supporting other areas of the Key Stage 3 curriculum.

Equalities Enrichment day All students in Years 7 to 11 enjoyed a range of activities and learning experiences outside of their normal timetabled lessons on Friday 15th October. This was the first of our Project Days this year and the focus was on Equalities. We had a variety of external agencies and companies who presented to the students on topics around Equalities and Diversity including Disability in Sport, Race and Racism, LGBTU presentations including a talk from Sophie Cook, who presented on trans-gender themes. At the Valley Campus some of our students also participated in a talk about the refugee status of people who enter the country at Gatwick airport. This talk was really interesting as it highlighted the situation and context of many of these refugees, including their welfare, human rights and many other issues. Our aim is for the annual Equalities Day to supplement the thorough and comprehensive education we offer around the Equalities Agenda in Learning for Life sessions. In future editions of Parklife lookout for information about our upcoming Project Days, where we will be focusing on key aspects of the curriculum, including Music Around the World and other Creative Arts themed days.
