Curriculum intent

Sixth Form Learning for Life

Sixth Form is a key transition between school and life as an adult, requiring further development of students’ personal, social and independent learning skills.  The Learning for Life curriculum supports students by preparing them for the challenges that they will face, feeling confident, capable and informed to make the right decisions in a range of key areas that may impact them now and in the future.

In Year 12 the Learning for Life curriculum includes topics that are relevant to the students, starting with study skills, work placement, an introduction to politics and law and then preparing for employment/university/apprenticeships.  Interspersed throughout the year we cover a range of relevant wellbeing and keeping safe issues, informing students about alcohol, banking security, driving, drugs, employment and contracts, financial management, first aid, internet security and sexual health.

In Year 13 we build on this as the focus turns to post 18 options including university and apprenticeship applications, student finance, budgeting, life at university and domestic independence.  This allows students to make informed decisions about their future. Throughout Year 12 and 13 our curriculum is planned and sequenced to facilitate a range of learning experiences, including guest speakers, debates, group presentations and audio-visual stimuli.  Much of Learning for Life is personalised to each student’s aims and aspirations, including those who are disadvantaged and with high needs.
