The Four Purposes

Our curriculum is now well established across the school. Curriculum for Wales came into effect in September 2022 in our Learning Support Centre, and we introduced it at Years 7 and 8 the following year. It now shapes learning across the school.

The Four Purposes sit at the heart of it. Everything we teach, and everything learners do, starts from these Four Purposes, and staff plan learning experiences around them. The Four Purposes are the same for learners of every age. They look different from one class to the next.

We worked with a range of people to design Four Purposes characters that make each statement clear and friendly for learners. You can see the characters in the menu, and they appear across the school. As a staff team, we have audited the Four Purposes and agreed on how they look in each of our classes.
