Key Skills

Personal, social and health education is an important and necessary part of all pupils’ education. It has been proven to impact on students’ life chances and academic success as they are prepared for the realities of the modern world whilst ensuring they are safe and healthy. 

All students in sixth form receive two PSHE lessons per week which focus on the following key areas:

Year 12:

This programme is constantly updated to ensure that students receive up to date and current advice and information.

Students also participate in targeted Supervised Study sessions, where they can either complete work in subjects where they are working below target, complete supplementary reading and independent research or focus on study skills.
