All Different, All Valued, All Equal

Wider World Strand 

The wider world strand is all about engaging students with the world outside the classroom and home. Teachers set suitable learning challenges and respond to each child’s different needs. The use of different teaching methods allows for different learning styles to be addressed.

In the different key stages links to Wider Worlds are:

KS3, KS4, P16

  • Off-site learning and educational visits
  • Visits from agencies (also unlikely at the moment due to covid restrictions)
  • Super learning day
  • Formal lesson activities

KS4 and P16

  • Enterprise
  • Horticulture

P16

  • Work experience
  • Work in the garden areas around school, looking after plants and growing our own vegetables.

Whole School 

We hold whole school celebrations for a range of cultural and religious events to allow students to understand how important these events are for people around the world.
