PSHE

Delivered once a week, PSHE at KAS involves a series of themed blocks, which change every half term. Students have the opportunity to suggest topics for study and discussion that they would find especially useful or interesting.

Currently the blocks include:

• Learning to learn: study skills of an independent A level student;

• Addicted to life: all about addictions and how to deal with the demands of modern adolescence;

• Relationships and sex

education: managing intimate and family relationships;

• Healthy lifestyle: looking after our physical health, through sensible nutrition, exercise and illness awareness;

• Coping with stress and anxiety through resilience and mindfulness.

Other topics include: the world of money, issues in modern society, law and justice, diversity and equality, and many more.

FIT TO STUDY

All Sixth Formers have games on their timetable and there is a choice of sports to get involved in, including: football, basketball, netball, fitness, yoga, pilates, tennis, rounders, badminton and volleyball.

Sport is compulsory and it gives you a chance to get out of the classroom and get some exercise.

Throughout the year, there will be fixtures for our sports teams: football (boys and girls), basketball (boys) and netball (girls). All Sixth Formers are welcome to come to after school clubs to practise for these fixtures.

Our fitness studio is available to Sixth Formers to use in their free time once they have completed a gym induction.
