Curriculum Overview
Careful planning has been undertaken to develop a coherent, broad and balanced 11-19 curriculum that is ambitious and inspirational. The curriculum is planned to challenge and enable all students to make rapid progress, studying subjects from the academic core as well as subjects from the performing arts, art, design and technology, business and computing. The content and experiences within the curriculum are designed to accumulate and address the gaps in cultural capital of all our students, particularly those with SEND and those who are socially disadvantaged. The vulnerable first approach to the curriculum ensures all students receive the support they need to succeed. The extra-curricular offer supports the provision, with a focus within each subject on helping students to form stronger schemata for long-term retention of knowledge.

Things to note
SEND
At the Arthur Terry School, providing the very best quality of education to all students so that they can be best that they can be, is at the heart of everything they do. They aim for all students to be proud, be kind and be ready. They are wholly committed to meeting the needs of all pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) so that they can develop the whole child and nurture them in a caring environment where they feel that they belong, they can thrive and they can be proud of their achievements. The Arthur Terry School ensures that all pupils, regardless of their specific needs are offered high quality inclusive teaching to enable them to make the best possible progress in a mainstream setting so that they are ready for the next stage of their lives. The SEND faculty works symbiotically with highly skilled pastoral leaders with a highly effective, embedded and robust pastoral system to offer extensive pastoral support to all SEND students where students are kind and sensitive to the needs of others so all students can flourish.
