Year 7
Students are divided into 2 bands (G and B) with a similar ability range.
They receive 50 one hour lessons each fortnight.
Students in the B band study Spanish and students in the G Band study German.
Students are set separately for English, Maths/Science, PE, Geography/History/Languages. This enables students to flourish and work in different groups for individual subjects.
A small group of students (Transition group) follow a slightly different balance of hours appropriate to their needs.
