CURRICULUM Through the constant work of the Curriculum Gateway Group we strive to maintain a curriculum that encourages our students to become enthusiastic learners who reach their full potential, we always celebrate personal achievements and collaborative work, believing in the culture of success. ‘Tell me and I forget We aim to develop enquiring minds by planning schemes of Teach me and I learn learning that rely on learning based on experience and Involve me and I remember.’ Ancient Chinese Proverb discovery. The curriculum at Rhyddings is designed to offer a broad and deep education for all years. It includes a senior phase of education which provides opportunities to develop skills for learning, life and work and obtain qualifications. It promotes the ability to learn and to reflect on learning and skills for life. It works hand in hand with the extended pastoral team to fully understand and best meet the needs of all. The curriculum allows teachers to use their professional expertise and creativity to ensure subjects are inter-linked and functional, just as they are in life and work. Please note that the curriculum is constantly under review. The lists below represent the current provision at the time of printing this prospectus.

Choices of subject options for Year 10 and Year 11 are made during Year 9. Parents and students are invited to an Options Afternoon, provisional choices are requested, and then individual guidance is available at a follow up Parents Evening. The range of combinations may be limited by timetabling constraints. Most qualifications contain a mixture of supervised course work or practical work with a terminal examination paper. A lot of subjects now also offer modular courses. Occasionally students are entered into examinations before Year 10, enabling them to study additional external qualifications. HOME LEARNING The purpose of Home Learning is to enhance student achievement; to help students become self-directed, independent learners; and to develop good work habits. It is generally recognised that Home Learning can make an important contribution to the learning process and contributes to the development of sound study habits. This is clearly understood by the vast majority of our parents. Most GCSEs contain a mixture of supervised course work or practical work with a terminal paper. All subjects now offer modular courses. CURRICULUM ORGANISATION
All pupils follow the National Curriculum.
In Years 7-9 most subjects are taught in ability groups. Some practical subjects are taught in mixed ability groups.
On entry to the school Year 7 students are placed in broad ability bands. Students will be moved between bands depending upon their progress.
Year 9 is the Formative Phase where students will begin their GCSE courses in core subjects and choose guided options according to their personal preferences.
Study sessions may be arranged by subject areas after school to help students who have fallen behind with their work or to improve standards of achievement.
The Student Support Team serves the needs of statemented students and provides support for other students with additional educational needs.
Extra literacy support is provided for Foundation students from Years 7 to 9 in Language lessons to ensure that all students can access the curriculum to obtain maximum success.
In some cases, students may be withdrawn from Form time to participate in focused group work on developing their skills in literacy or numeracy or improving social skills with members of the Student Support Team and outside agencies.

Rhyddings Business and Enterprise School Student Development & Guidance CARE OF YOUR CHILD The health, safety and well‐being of our students is of paramount importance. To ensure that all students receive the individual care and support needed they are organised into year groups, and within these into form groups. Each student will have a form teacher who sees them for registration each morning. Students stay in the same group and are likely to have the same form teacher for their five years at Rhyddings. The form teacher is a key figure in the educational development and welfare of students and the first teacher they should go to when needing information, advice or for sharing a problem. Each year group has two Year Leaders who are responsible for the wellbeing and progress of the year group and are a point of contact should parents wish to discuss any issue relating to their child. From this supportive base both student support staff and teaching staff work to ensure that students achieve their full potential during their time at Rhyddings. CHILD PROTECTION All staff working at Rhyddings Business and Enterprise School are familiar with and work within the guidance of the school’s Child Protection Policy ATTENDANCE At Rhyddings we take a serious approach to attendance. We view regular and punctual attendance as absolutely essential for our students to benefit from the educational opportunities available to them and for them to achieve their full potential. Every year our results prove that the students with high levels of attendance achieve the best results. Please ensure your child is a regular and punctual attendee at Rhyddings so that he/she can gain the best outcomes and lay a good foundation for their future. LINKS WITH PRIMARY SCHOOLS Rhyddings Business and Enterprise School has strong links with our local primary schools. These links have developed over many years and the vast majority of students who start at Rhyddings in year 7 have already visited the school to attend workshops, performances, projects and taster days on several occasions and are familiar with the building and many of our staff and students. The member of staff in charge of transition works with the same team throughout the academic year to ensure that students in our local schools have all the information they need in order to make the leap between their primary school and Rhyddings as smooth as possible. This team also meets with every Year 6 teacher to build up a personalised profile
for each child as they transfer to secondary school. This means that we have the best and most up to date academic and social information about each child. Our students are also at the heart of this process and throughout the year the Transition Champions, a group made up from Senior Students and our Year 8 e‐buddies host events both at Rhyddings and in our Primary Schools. These events are designed and presented by our students to enable the Year 6 Transition Champions from across Hyndburn to get to know each other and bring questions from the pupils in their classes. They are given many opportunities to talk frankly with our students and staff about their concerns and are able to ask them questions about what life is really like at Rhyddings.
COLLECTIVE WORSHIP The 1998 Educational Reform Act requires that all students attending a county school must take in daily collective worship. Worship is to be ‘wholly or mainly of a broadly Christian character’ and should reflect the ‘broad traditions of Christian belief’. At the same time the school should take into account the general character of the family background of the students as well as their ages and aptitudes. The act also allows schools to organize daily Collective Worship for the whole school or separate groups of students and at any time during the day. Rhyddings students usually meet for Collective Worship as a Year or Form group and they are encouraged to participate in and contribute to our Collective Worship which is planned to draw on a wide range of Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural. CAREERS EDUCATION AND GUIDANCE Careers education and guidance is a continuing process delivered across the school as part of the function of the Form Tutor/student relationship. We hold up to date information for the student/staff use in the Learning Resource Centre. The centre is opened daily and staffed by the manager. A discrete element of careers is introduced as part of the Citizenship programme throughout the school. Young Peoples Services provide a Personal Advisor who gives individual guidance interviews, undertakes group work in Citizenship lessons on career topics and helps students make decisions by using the career interest guides. All students have the opportunity to participate in work experience during KS4. Outside speakers are encouraged to visit the school and students may also visit a variety of work places. We aim to equip our students to make the transition from school to adult life based on sound knowledge and understanding of what choices are, and to play a responsible and confident role within their families, at work and in adult life.

Our children found Rhyddings an enjoyable experience and, as a result, are developing into mature, knowledgeable adults. Quote from parent, Ofsted
Welcome to our family I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time to find out about the ‘family’ that is Rhyddings Business and Enterprise School. Our principal aim is to maximise the achievements of our students through an individually tailored programme of personalised learning. We also aim to inspire them through a variety of educational opportunities that will transform their potential. At Rhyddings, we believe in supporting each other to achieve success. We set each other challenging targets and encourage each other to attain and exceed those targets. We pride ourselves on our high
standards of teaching and learning, our high quality resources and our outstanding systems for care, guidance and support. We appreciate that every student is an individual, and that success comes in many forms. Consequently, we put great emphasis on celebrating each and every student’s achievements. I am very proud to lead Rhyddings as we increase our emphasis on personalisation of the curriculum and move into an exciting phase of Building Schools for the Future. I would like to invite you to contact the school to arrange a visit at any time. You can be sure of a warm welcome. Paul Trickett, Headteacher
