In KS2 and KS3, students take part in citizenship lessons where they learn and discuss what makes a good citizen in today's society. Through class discussion, debates and team-work, students work to organise activities and events to raise awareness and funds for one of the local or national charities that they have chosen to support: GSPCA, Teenage Cancer Trust and Paws for Support. 

​

In addition, students learn about the rights and responsibilities of a fair and equal society. Here they discuss democracy - the role of the Government, Parliaments and the Monarchy as well as rules and laws and the role of the Justice System.

​

In KS4 students focus on careers and preparing themselves for the new chapter of their life post-16. This includes learning about finances. Students will work towards the 'LIBF Lessons in Financial Education Certificate Level 1 or 2', where they will gain a better understanding of money and personal finances. Topics include 'How do we calculate income?', 'What is budgeting?' and 'How do we keep our money safe?'.
