CURRICULUM - DETAIL
St. George's fosters a caring and happy environment based on the principles of love, mutual respect for others, and for one's self.
All the children benefit from the richness of our multicultural community and learn to value others'; beliefs as well as their own. There are regular assemblies that affirm our sense of community, celebrate pupils' achievements and successes, and afford opportunity for the consideration of relevant moral issues.
Development of good work habits and a thorough mastery of the basic skills are the main goals of the curriculum. It is hoped that every child's interest, curiosity and desire to create will be aroused by the course of study, and that each child will develop a true love of learning. To this end the curriculum is organised to provide opportunity for each child to work at the appropriate level of achievement
St. George's curriculum is based on the Foundation Key Stages 1, 2 3 and 4 of the National Curriculum. Early Years and Reception provide progressively intensive preparation for the National Curriculum. Key Stage 1 is taught in years one and two. Key Stage 2 is taught in years three to six; and Key Stage 3 in years seven, eight and nine; key stage 4 is the final two years of GCSE study.
The secondary curriculum continues to follow the National Curriculum, following the Key Stage 3 programmes of study with the addition of another foreign language. The subjects studied are: English, French, German, Mathematics, Science, ICT, History, Geography, Art, Music, PSHE and Citizenship and Physical Education. Study skills are taught as part of the English and PSHE syllabus.
