The Vocational Faculty staff are passionate about their subjects and all have a wealth of experience to offer. At HDHS we believe that students should have the option to follow vocational courses and be able to demonstrate what they can do in a variety of ways, not just at assessment points in the year. 

We offer a range of courses at KS3, KS4 and KS5 which support our vision; that every student at HDHS be given the opportunities to allow them to succeed, and with the community on our doorstep, we're excited to offer subjects that are relevant and will benefit our students as they enter further studies or employment. 

Not only will students present, play, debate, perform, role play, take part in and contribute to team and individual activities, but there are written exams and assignments too. To help students work their hardest and achieve their best, this site is dedicated to helping our students learn in the Vocational Faculty: 

• OCR Sport

• OCR Health and Social Care
