The Fullbrook School Curriculum

Whole School Curriculum Statement

At Fullbrook we aim to offer for all students an inspiring, diverse and balanced curriculum: a curriculum which promotes examination success and encourages personal achievement. We provide a safe environment, in which young people of all abilities are able to develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes which facilitate lifelong learning. Throughout their time at Fullbrook, students will have the opportunity to engage in a range of extra-curricular activities which aim to improve their physical and mental wellbeing, as well as developing their creative, interpersonal, and entrepreneurial skills.

 

The Fullbrook curriculum is a broad, rich curriculum and is at the heart of everything we do. Students follow a seven year curriculum and the curriculum is sequenced so that skills and knowledge are developed and embedded throughout Key Stage 3. All students will have the solid foundations to flourish at Key Stage 4 and into Key Stage 5 at our sixth form.

 

Each subject constructs a curriculum with the intent that appropriate knowledge and skills will be gained at each step of a seven year journey. The knowledge and skills are not only required for examination success but also in order to take opportunities, responsibilities and experiences in later life. The curriculum is delivered through excellent teaching that allows students to transfer key knowledge to long-term memory. The curriculum is thoughtfully sequenced so that new knowledge and skills build upon what has been taught previously and students work towards clearly defined end points on each stage of their seven year curriculum journey.
