HomeSchool Profile

Welcome to Richard Cloudesley School

Pupils leave Richard Cloudesley school with all the knowledge and skills they need to be as independent, autonomous, and self-determining as possible in their adult life. We have high aspirations for our pupils, and the curriculum in the sixth form really focuses on enhancing these functional and practical skills needed for independence in adulthood.The Preparations for Adulthood Framework, PfA, informs all learning within the sixth form, ensuring that our young people are able to contribute to decisions about their own future. We prioritise supporting pupils to develop skills relating to social connections, independence and their own health, as well as readiness for work and life beyond school. The PfA framework penetrates all areas of the curriculum ensuring that all lessons and learning opportunities are focused on preparing our young people for life after Cloudesley.The Sixth form offer is distinct to the rest of the school. As our pupils grow so does the curriculum, the way in which they experience the curriculum evolves to provide further choice and options and increased focus on self-directed learning.Our Curriculum aims to provide students with meaningful and highly individualised learning opportunities that will equip them with the skills needed to continue to be life-long learners.
