Curriculum @ TMBS

An Outstanding Curriculum

Students at TMBS experience a curriculum that is:

Rich – Students gain an incredibly wide range of knowledge and experiences during their time at TMBS.

Well planned and coherent – We have carefully considered and planned all aspects of our curriculum, maximising students' development within individual subjects and their holistic learning.

Well sequenced – Our curriculum is planned to ensure ideas build over time in the most efficient way. Knowledge gained at Key stage 3 builds carefully on KS2 and provides a solid foundation for GCSE study.

Comprehensive – Every element of what students need to be successful (including personal development, behaviour for learning and extra-curricular opportunities) forms part of our well planned curriculum.

Our Curriculum Intent

The curriculum at TMBS comprises of all the learning and developmental opportunities our students experience. Through a broad and balanced curriculum, the school aims to promote success for all by ensuring our students:

•  Are engaged and enjoy learning.
• Are confident and resilient when faced with challenges.
• Develop an understanding and appreciation of the wider world.
• Are encouraged to work collaboratively (together) to ask questions and develop a love of learning.
• Develop the skills and knowledge for life beyond school.
• Take responsibility - Reflect on previous experiences and make improvements to achieve and surpass their own personal targets.
