Curriculum Intent
Our curriculum, rooted in our vision statement and the key principles of Jesuit education, provides aspirational pathways for all pupils to enable them to strive for excellence in all that they do so that they can achieve their potential and progress on their career pathway.

All pupils engage with a broad, balanced and sequenced curriculum and are supported to develop their knowledge and understanding of concepts, skills and talents. They also have access to an extensive range of extra-curricular activities which provides both a balance to their academic studies and enriching cultural capital opportunities.

We are committed to care for the individual pupil and their development as a whole person and help them to grow the personal characteristics and virtues within the Jesuit Pupil Profile. Being ‘men and women for others’ means that each pupil has the desire and capacity to make a positive difference in the lives of those they meet now as pupils and in their future lives.

Pupils are supported in making effective transitions across all key stages through the provision of aspirational pathways. This allows pupils to develop and to achieve objectives appropriate and challenging to them and attain the qualifications and skills for their next steps in education or employment.

The College curriculum is carefully planned and includes a strong emphasis both on EBacc and vocational courses. The broad curriculum gives pupils a depth of experience and knowledge balanced between the classroom and extra-curricular opportunities. It enables them to develop their imaginative and creative skills alongside their emotional intelligence. There are comprehensive PSHE, RSE and Careers programmes that start in Year 7 and develop incrementally through to Year 13.

Through the curriculum pupils have the opportunity to become independent learners and develop a love of learning. In supporting pupils in the formation of their values and attitudes, they are helped to realise that their talents are for the good of the human community. They are encouraged and given occasion to develop leadership and teamwork skills enabling them to become responsible and successful members of society.
