For pupils of Reynalds Cross School with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Places are arranged through your local authority.
The 14-19 stage was created so students in Key Stages 4 and 5 have the opportunity to spend a full five years working on preparation for life after school. Students in the 14-19 Stage are allocated to classes according to ability and also maturity, learning style, possible future destinations and group dynamics. This allows teachers to use the most suitable strategies for the group and students to have the best possible learning experiences.
The 14-19 Curriculum was developed with a focus on preparing students for their next destinations by supporting them to develop the knowledge and skills needed to become valued members of society. Within the 14-19 stage, grouping of students allows staff to deliver personalised, accredited programmes of study. There is a wide range of subjects on offer, including opportunities for students to choose their own enrichment activities, complete life skills work in the school house, use community facilities and experience a range of future planning activities (e.g. work experience and tasters, college link courses, advocacy sessions).
Achievement in the 14-19 is accredited through a range of qualifications at entry level. Work is undertaken in units which are linked to the 14-19 curriculum subject areas which are functional skills, personal and social development, subject studies and future planning.
