Education

Science

Our science curriculum places a strong emphasis on Biology, supported by engaging lessons in Chemistry and Physics. We focus on:

• Foundation level understanding

• Scientific literacy and terminology

• Practical application and problem-solving

• Exam-style questions and preparation techniques

• Topic areas such as the human body, ecosystems, chemical reactions, forces, and energy

This approach helps students develop the knowledge and confidence to approach GCSE Science with success.

History

We embed History learning alongside English to reinforce analytical and contextual understanding across subjects. Students explore key events, ideas, and individuals from the curriculum while developing:

• Source analysis and interpretation

• Chronological understanding

• Critical thinking and debate

• Cross-curricular writing skills

• Videos to support learning

• Health & Medicine

• Both World Wars

• Power and Conflict

Topics support the wider curriculum and encourage engagement with the past in a way that connects to the present.

Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)

At Action2Change, our RSE curriculum is designed to help students develop the knowledge, skills, and values they need to make informed decisions about their relationships, health, and wellbeing.

We cover topics such as:

• Healthy relationships, including friendships, family and romantic relationships

• Consent, respect, and boundaries

• Online safety and the impact of social media

• Sexual health, puberty, and reproductive education (covered in Biology)

• Awareness and Inclusion

• Managing emotions and mental wellbeing

• Recognising and reporting abuse or unhealthy behaviour

Our teaching is age-appropriate, inclusive, and in line with the national curriculum guidance. We aim to create a safe, respectful environment where students feel confident asking questions and learning about themselves and others.
