We believe in ‘Growth Mindset’ and take an inclusive approach to our More Able agenda. Intelligences are cultivated through learning and we aim to provide extensive opportunities for all our students to demonstrate ‘More Able’ characteristics within the diverse curriculum.
Students are tracked within subject areas according to their attainment and attitude to learning. This information is used to highlight those that are displaying More Able qualities in a given subject. This also creates a ‘rising tide effect’ that will lift the attainment of all students within the school.
As well as ensuring our lessons contain appropriate stretch and challenge, during the course of the year there will be opportunities for all students in keeping with our More Able theme for 2024-25 Enriching and Engaging Experiences.
In addition, we will be running our usual More Able events:
– 19 November: More Able Evening
– Spring 2025: Year 11 Time to Shine Programme
– 17 March: Flair Week
