Key Stage 3 Curriculum

In order to deliver the aims of our curriculum we ensure all students in Key Stage 3 study a broad and balanced curriculum, with a mix of vocational and therapeutic lessons.  Where appropriate, each subject uses the National Curriculum as a basis for determining what is covered at Key Stage 3 and then adapts the content to suit individual learners. Our key stage 3 curriculum aims to equip students with skills to move on to an individually tailored timetable at key stage 4. At key stage 3 we offer a community project lesson with the aim for students to plan and contribute within the local community, as well as visiting local heritage sites, gaining an understanding of the history of our city. We also teach students key social and life skills in PSHE lessons, which enriches students with life skills and the opportunity to apply them out side of the school boundaries and hours. We endeavour to offer a broad a curriculum as possible to ensure students have the skills to take in to their future life’s.

Keys Stage 4 Curriculum

At Titan St Georges Academy we offer a broad and balanced curriculum model. We believe in offering subjects that allow a wide range of pathways and progression for our students in the future. Whilst continuing to offer our core subjects, pupils have the option to choose vocational subjects tailored to their needs and future aspirations. All pupils at key stage 4 will study English, Maths, Science, RE and Business Studies, which is then topped up with a pathway option which includes Drama, PE, Food Technology, Art and Travel and Tourism. Pupils prior data/ achievements are taken in to account when options are chosen. We also offer key stage 4 pupils a Careers lesson with the aim to provide them with the tools to move on to further education or an apprenticeship, as well as the skills to contribute to the local and national workforce. PHSE is also placed highly within our curriculum, focussing on current trends and educating pupils around British Values.

Assessment

A variety of assessments methods are used at Titan St Georges Academy to determine both students strengths and areas to improve, and when required, put the appropriate interventions in place. Assessment is modelled on students mastering and retaining subject knowledge, and there to ensure all students can attain the best possible educational outcomes. At Titan St Georges we collect data for all subjects 6 times per year and use this as a basis for planning quality and engaging lessons tailored to all levels of pupils ability. Assessment Data is carefully monitored by the Academies Assistant Head Teacher in charge of data.
