English
We believe English Key Stage 3 (Year 7, 8 & 9) should very much behave as a skills-building approach to reading, writing and oracy. Our aim is to ensure all pupils are confident, critical and cultured in their ability to respond to, and create non-fiction and fiction texts, so that they have a rich foundation for tackling the demands of the key stage 4 English curriculum.

- Literacy Scheme of Work & Prose
