Our curriculum at KS3 is designed to provide learners with a well-rounded education including English, Maths, Science, Humanities, Arts, and Physical Education. We also believe in the importance of experiential learning and offer plenty of opportunities in all of our settings for learners to engage in outdoor activities and educational visits. These experiences allow our young people to connect with nature, learn about the world around them, and develop important skills such as teamwork and resilience.
We believe that offering this broad range of qualifications and courses allows our learners to explore their interests and talents, develop key skills, and achieve academic success. By providing a rich and varied curriculum, we aim to support each student in reaching their full potential and preparing them for their future endeavours.

We place a strong emphasis on Spiritual, Moral, Social, and Cultural (SMSC) development at Moorfield Learning Centre. Our curriculum is designed to enhance Learners' SMSC skills through various activities and initiatives.
Spiritual Development: We provide opportunities for learners to explore their beliefs, values, and sense of identity. Through reflective practises, mindfulness exercises, and discussions on ethics and morality, we encourage our learners to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
Moral Development: Ethics and values are integrated into our curriculum to help learners develop a strong moral compass. We engage young people in discussions on social justice, empathy, and responsibility, fostering a sense of right and wrong in their decision-making.
Social Development: Collaboration, teamwork, and communication skills are nurtured through group projects, community service initiatives, and extracurricular activities. We encourage our young people to respect diversity, build positive relationships, and contribute positively to society.
Cultural Development: Our curriculum celebrates diversity and promotes cultural awareness. Through multicultural studies and global awareness projects, we aim to broaden learners' horizons and foster a deep appreciation for different cultures and traditions.

We believe in the power of short, focused lessons to optimise learning outcomes. Our learning sessions are designed to be interactive, engaging, and impactful, ensuring that the learners remain attentive and motivated throughout the day.
We understand the importance of regular breaks for learners to refresh and recharge. Our school day includes scheduled breaks to allow students to relax, socialise, and rejuvenate, ensuring they remain focused and energised throughout the day.

Afternoon Sessions:
Our outreach hubs offer engaging learning sessions designed to cater to the diverse needs of our learners. These sessions are structured to provide a holistic educational experience that fosters growth and development in all areas.
Attendance is crucial for your child's academic success and overall development. Regular attendance ensures that they do not miss out on important learning opportunities and helps them stay connected with their peers and staff.
Reporting Absences: If your child is ill and unable to attend school, please notify us before 9:30am on the day of absence. This allows us to keep track of attendance records and provide appropriate support to your child upon their return.
We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring that your child attends school regularly and on time. Together, we can create a supportive learning environment for all our young people.
