Key Stage 4

The course is designed to cater for the needs of a group of students selected at the end of Year 9. They are specially chosen from students who will struggle to cope with a full academic diet of GCSE subjects.

The course is built on seeking to ensure that each individual student is offered the opportunity to manage his or her own learning and to succeed at the level that he/she finds most appropriate. In this way we aim to increase self-esteem.

The course aims to enable students to design, organise, carry out and evaluate their own programme and performance.

Accreditation

The course is based entirely on A.S.D.A.N. Programmes using the main awards at Bronze, Silver and Gold levels.

What the course involves

The students choose various tasks from a variety of areas, carry out the task and produce evidence to show what they have done. The evidence can be in the form of written, picture or the actual artefact.

The areas they can choose from

Assessment

The students compile a file of their evidence and once sufficient is gathered, it is then checked by an external moderator and if it is found to be satisfactory, a certificate is awarded.

Work Experience

The students will attend a work placement for the two years of the course. These placements consist of various establishments such as Care Homes, Play Groups, Garages, Shops, Offices and Stables.
