2 KEY STAGE FOUR CURRICULUM Woking High School s Key Stage Four Curriculum is built around an academic core of subjects. These subjects are then complemented by a wide range of courses covering the arts, technology and vocational qualifications. The curriculum is designed to prepare students for their post 16 education and to promote a deep interest in learning. Outside the examination classes there is a programme of Citizenship and PSHE lessons which include careers education, work experience and discussion-based activities relating to a number of moral and ethical issues. Our approach to the Key Stage Four Curriculum is highly personalised as we want to ensure every student has an offer that best meets their needs and their post 16 aspirations. High quality Careers Advice, Information and Guidance will build upon work covered in Years 7 and 8 to ensure students are supported in their option choices. We also look forward to working closely with parents to provide guidance and advice in the months leading up to the start of Year 10 and beyond. Woking High School operates a two week timetable cycle consisting of 50 lessons. THE CORE SUBJECTS English [8 lessons per cycle]- see p8-9 All students study GCSE English Language and GCSE English Literature. Maths [8 lessons per cycle] - see p10-11 All students study GCSE Mathematics. Able mathematicians will also have the opportunity to study GCSE Statistics and a Further Mathematics qualification. Science - [10 lessons per cycle] see p12-13 All students study GCSE Science. Students will either follow a Combined Science qualification (equivalent to two GCSEs) or will be offered the opportunity to study all three science disciplines - Biology, Chemistry and Physics - as separate GCSEs. Those students who follow the Triple Science route will be allocated 12 hours of curriculum time per cycle. 2
3 Citizenship / PSHE / RE /Careers Guidance [minimum of 1 lesson per cycle] This lesson delivers aspects of our curriculum that are vital to students personal development and well-being. Through this course students are equipped with the skills to think critically and debate moral and political questions, to enable them to manage their money on a day-to-day basis, and plan for future financial needs. The PSHE content delivered within these lessons equips students with an understanding of risk and will develop the knowledge and skills necessary to make safe and informed decisions. Recreational PE All students will have PE lessons where they will develop their understanding of health and fitness and have the opportunity to play team and individual sports on a regular basis. Option Courses OPTION SUBJECTS Students can select three option subjects that they wish to study. Each option subject is allocated six hours of curriculum time per two week cycle. All students have to select at least one English Baccalaureate subject (Languages or History / Geography). We firmly recommend that students who aspire to apply to university in the future choose one language AND one of GCSE History or Geography. VOCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS It is possible for students to study Level 1 or Level 2 vocational courses in some areas of the curriculum. These vocational courses are called Technical Awards and have the same value as GCSE qualifications. All Technical Awards have a minimum of 25% of the qualification assessed by external examination. Within school we offer Technical Awards in Craft, ICT and Travel and Tourism. Where appropriate for the individual student, we also offer vocational courses that are delivered at local colleges. Please contact Mr Sharples to arrange a meeting if you would like further information regarding Technical Awards. Parents or students wanting to discuss the Options process or possible choices in more detail are encouraged to contact Mr Sharples by telephone on or by options@wokinghigh.surrey.sch.uk 3
