The curriculum in Kites is based on the objectives from the KS3 and KS4 National Curriculum, differentiated to meet the variety of needs in this class. A core focus is the development of key skills throughout the curriculum, such as supporting progress particularly in literacy, numeracy, physical, personal and social development.

Our curriculum is also enriched through input from a range of professionals such as music therapists and sports coaches.

By the end of their secondary education all students will gain accreditation through the nationally recognised body, ASDAN. Students complete modules specific to their learning interests and needs, preparing them for further study within our Post 16 department.
