St Clement's High School

Curriculum

We aim to ensure every student is challenged to achieve their best at all times by consistently providing engaging lessons which stretch students.

Key Stage 3

Students are taught in ability sets for our core subjects of English, Maths and Science in years 7, 8 and 9.  Students are grouped in Year 7 using their SAT grades and information shared from their primary teachers.  These groups are reviewed at the end of the academic year and in Year 8-9 additional assessment data and teacher observations are used to group the students. 

In all other subjects, as listed below, students are taught in mixed ability groups.

  • Art
  • Citizenship
  • Computing
  • Drama
  • Design and Technology
  • French
  • Geography
  • History
  • Music

Personal, Social, Health and Economic education [PSHE] is taught alongside Careers education during tutor time and as part of the DT rotation.
