A welcome message
The Secondary School at Bromsgrove is a vibrant learning environment which allows all students to achieve their potential.
We follow a curriculum based upon the English National Curriculum (ENC), so that our students are fully prepared for the external exams in Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5. We ensure that we embody the best elements of this curriculum, whilst tailoring it to fit the needs of our students and the cultural context that we are in. The curriculum we offer has depth, rigour and promotes the values that we espouse as a school in our Learner Profile: determination, curiosity, independence, risk-taking, kindness, the ability to work in a team, positivity and a reflective nature. As students progress through our community the curriculum adapts and reflects the differing needs of the developing individual with a true personalisation of their learning experiences. Naturally, the curriculum we offer is much more than just academic subjects. The whole “Bromsgrove Experience” encompasses many other elements that contribute to the development of confident, happy young achievers.
In Key Stage 3, each subject is timetabled discreetly, allowing students to develop their knowledge, skills and understanding in each subject area. We value cross curricular links so that students are able to maximise their transferable skills and gain the most from their education.
In Key Stage 4, students study for their iGCSEs/GCSEs. The core curriculum consists of English, Maths and Science, with a further four options drawn from a variety of disciplines. Through our robust pastoral system we seek to guide students to make appropriate subject choices.
In Key Stage 5, students study for their A Levels or BTec Diploma courses, choosing four subject options. Students will typically need to have attained a minimum of a B grade at iGCSE/GCSE level within that subject before embarking upon the A Level course.
We welcome visits from parents so that they can discover the innovation and creativity that takes place everyday here at Windsor Park.
