KS3 /Grow

My project

KS3 pupils grow their self esteem, confidence, social and communication skills and independence with the intent of better accessing a broad and balanced curriculum. KS3 pupils will develop the skills required to participate in a range of theory and practical based subjects that allows them to use their prior knowledge and develop it in safe and supportive learning environment to gain a better understanding of themselves and the world around them.

 

Links to KS4 - Pupils are preparing for adulthood which is reflected in EHCP targets set in yr 9. Pupils have grown the key skills needed to access the KS4 curriculum.

Ride

Welcome to Ride class.  This year we have 11 pupils, 3 girls and 8 boys. We have 4 new students this year in our class. We have made a brilliant start to the new school year so far, and have already been making great achievements. Our start in Ride class is new to us all but we have all been very positive and excited for our new journey in KS3. As a class, we have enjoyed many trips that we have participated in already, and look forward to gaining more experience and independence skills as we dive deeper into KS3!

We can't wait for the year ahead and are ready to work hard to reach our individual targets!

Aldrin Class is made up of a friendly, creative, and energetic group of Year 7, 8, and 9 pupils. Each member of our class brings their own personality and talents, making Aldrin a fun and inspiring place to learn.

Our class teacher is Miss Dowie, who is supported by our fantastic Teaching Assistants, Mrs Reynolds and Miss Niyro. They work together to guide and encourage us every step of the way.

We enjoy a rich and diverse timetable that includes subjects like Maths, English, PE, ICT, Design Technology, Food Technology, Outdoor Learning, Science, and much more! We approach our lessons with a positive mindset, and we know that asking for help is a smart and confident choice. We always do our best and support one another.

In Aldrin Class, we are developing important life skills and independence, both within school and out in the wider community. We’re also really excited that some of us will have the opportunity to go on a residential trip to Danbury this year—a great chance for new experiences and building confidence!

Armstrong

In Armstrong we believe that learning happens best when it's hands-on, fun, and meaningful. That’s why we spend time at Forest School and out in the community, using real-world experiences to bring our topics to life. 

We work as a team and support each other every step of the way. Our students take pride in being positive role models — showing kindness, respect, and responsibility wherever we go.

As a class, we grow by building confidence and life skills, explore through new experiences and learning beyond the classroom, believe in ourselves and each other, and achieve by celebrating progress, big or small.

Every day is a chance to learn, have fun, and shine in our own unique way!
