Key Stage Three Curriculum

At Brownedge St Mary’s, our pupils in Key Stage Three experience an ambitious, broad and clearly sequenced curriculum allowing them to extend their knowledge and understanding, as well as skills, in a range of academic, artistic, creative and sporting subjects and activities. Through offering a diverse subject offer, pupils make substantial and sustained progress where they are engaged, challenged and inspired to learn as they move through their school life.
