Features

Things to note

  • Arts and culture are truly celebrated at  SMS Changing Lives School because lessons are tailored to allow all pupils the opportunity to explore the arts in their own way and to meet their diverse needs. The students take part in two or three art and design lessons a week. They work closely on the process of creating art mindfully by exploring different mediums – e.g. paint, oil pastel, sculpture, printing and photography.
  • At  SMS Changing Lives School they encourage students to be inquisitive and creative through music. Learning music enables pupils to form many cross-curricular links, as well as learning to be creative and expressive, and to collaborate with others in a variety of ensembles. Students have weekly music lessons with a subject specialist teacher and bespoke curriculum balances performing, composing, listening and appraising skills across a breadth of musical styles. Students learn the piano throughout, as well as other instrumental opportunities in units including ukuleles and guitars.
  • At SMS Changing Lives School PE curriculum has been purposefully designed in order to develop students overall health and well-being, fundamental movement skills, team and individual sports and water competency. They build on from PE curriculum in primary school where students developed fundamental movement skills (FMS).
