The Formal Curriculum
At All Saints Catholic College, we regularly review our curriculum to evaluate its efficacy in helping pupils to learn and remember more over time. We have a three-year Key Stage Three which allows pupils to learn and revisit knowledge in a broad variety of subjects. The Key Stage Three curriculum has been carefully planned so that the knowledge acquired, meets the requirements of the National Curriculum enabling our pupils to succeed. At All Saints, Key Stage Four subjects offer pupils the opportunity to explore their option subjects in greater depth, building on the foundations laid at Key Stage Three. We use our mantra to start every lesson at All Saints, in this we ask pupils if they are ready to be inspired, be excellent and succeed. We believe every pupil has the potential to achieve, regardless of their individual background, through the acquisition of powerful knowledge.
Formal Curriculum InformationThe All Saints Way
The values of our school are embedded in all aspects of the curriculum, they align The All Saints Way; the Wider Curriculum and the Formal Curriculum. We provide opportunities for pupils to excel in these areas and reward where pupils demonstrate these values. At the centre of the All Saints Way is Faith, each week we identify pupils in all year groups who have demonstrated stewardship, kindness and empathy to other people in our school community and reward them. The School focuses on one of these values each half term and pupils are rewarded for embodying them. We seek out experiential rewards which link to the value each half term to reinforce the importance of adopting these qualities.
