Extra-curricular
“Welcome to our newly revised curriculum for some of our young people aged between 16 and 19 years. As you know we are always trying to improve our provision.
We have reviewed how well our young people develop their independence, life and work skills while at school. As a result of this we have developed a new sixth form base which will be closely aligned with our young people’s desire for more independence and a more ‘grown up’ feel to their school day. This provision will be a bridge between school and college or work placements and apprenticeships. It will give young people opportunities to learn how to do things for themselves in real life situations.
For some the work will closely link to our work experience programmes and internships for others it will be more based on learning how to live more independently or enabling them to have a greater number of choices as they move on in the future.
Activities to promote health, fitness and leisure are key to supporting students to take responsibility for their personal wellbeing. Students will have the opportunity to try different activities that they may want to use in their adult life. They will access sessions at different locations within the community building an understanding of the options that they will have as adults and making choices based upon their experiences
Arts and creativity sessions are an essential part of building confidence, curiosity and resilience. In these creative sessions students will explore a variety of creative arts
Learning about the expectations of adulthood will help students to understand a range of challenges in their personal, family, community and work roles.
