horsforth school
Opportunity and achievement for all” epitomises everything we offer as we regard
our curriculum as the totality of a student’s experience at Horsforth; our range
of subjects, programmes of study, pedagogy, assessments, opportunities, clubs,
trips, mentoring, pastoral support and enrichment. Our curriculum is inclusive
and aims to equip all students with confidence, resilience, competence and
skills that allow them to succeed in a rapidly changing society. We value a
holistic approach to educating the whole person with a focus on spiritual,
moral, social and cultural education (SMSC). Our curriculum offers a breadth of
opportunities and experience in conjunction with high quality pastoral care
leading to personal and character development. It aims to ensure all students
are included and supported to reach their potential. We aim for all students to
achieve excellent outcomes and this is not simply exam results but where
students get to as a result of their experience at Horsforth School. We aim to
ensure they are prepared for their future steps in education, employment and
training and beyond. We want all students to enjoy their learning and achieve
their own personal success, now and in the future. At Horsforth we have a clear
responsibility to prepare students for the rest of their lives. In partnership
with key stakeholders including employers, further education providers,
Trustees, teachers, parents, students and school leaders our curriculum informs
and shapes the journey of a Horsforth Learner.
