Formal Pathway

Pupils following the Formal pathway are our more independent learners.

Classes on this pathway usually have 10 pupils.

Students follow a subject specific curriculum under a 6 strand curriculum.

Key Stage 3 students follow a primary model and pupils stay with their form tutor for the majority of their lessons.

Students work towards accreditation in English and Maths.

Students continue with RSHE, Cooking and Shopping, PE & Fitness and Employability and Enterprise (Careers).

Blended Pathway

As some students progress through Highfield, it may be appropriate for them to access time on a different pathway.

For some students this is to access accreditation on the formal pathway. It may not be suitable for them to fully move pathway but they will join their peers for specific subjects.
