Curriculum
We want our students to learn as much as possible in their time with us. As such, we offer a wide variety of subjects – most of these will be familiar from primary school but there may be some subjects that Year 7 have not studied before.
To help you to prepare for Year 7, we have asked all of our subject leads to tell you what you will be studying at the start of year 7 and also to provide you with a link to find out a bit more. Please click on the links below so that you can start to get excited about your learning for September.
