Curriculum at Wombourne High School
The aim of the curriculum at Wombourne High School is to inspire students, to allow individual students to identify their interests and talents, and to develop these. To develop real curriculum passions. To strive for excellence in all its forms, including attainment of qualifications. Through our key values of hard work, positivity and kindness our aim is to develop a ‘can do’ attitude in all of our students, valuing resilience and determination. Our aim is that students enjoy learning.
In addition to learning within the classroom, to spark interest and passion, we aim to provide students with unique educational experiences through trips, speakers and extra-curriculum activities. To give a flavour, over the last few years students have been able to hear Robert Winston talk about his Science work, History students have visited Rome, and Performing Arts students have visited and performed in local theatres.
The Wombourne High School curriculum has a careers focus. In addition to careers work in tutor time, PSHE lessons and assemblies, each subject will deliver at least 2 career focused subject lessons per year group per year.
Years 7-9 (Key Stage 3)
We aim to provide students with a broad curriculum at Key Stage 3, that is challenging and engaging. Students spend 3 years studying the Key Stage 3 National Curriculum.
