Our subject has a \u2018Subject Way\u2019 at the heart of it. Our Subject Way is designed to help students become young subject specialists. The Subject Way has two main purposes:

Firstly, to teach students the vital skills they need to achieve their full potential and gain the very best grades they can. Secondly, to teach students how each subject relates to the wider world, incorporating the life skills they will learn.

It is our belief that knowing how what you learn links to the wider world brings a subject to life and therefore improves overall understanding and engagement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Year 9<\/strong><\/p>

Year 9 is a foundation introductory year whereby Child Development is studied as part of a suite of other subjects.\u00a0 Students will be introduced to child development starting with conception, birth and how to care for the developing child. We will also focus on the different areas of development and how we can support the child by providing age and stage appropriate activities. Additionally we investigate different places where children can go to be cared for and educated and the typical curriculum that they will follow.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
