Assistant Headteacher of Key Stage 3
Students in Year 9 are at a pivotal time in their education, where for the first time, they are able to really personalise their curriculum and select subjects which they wish to pursue to a greater depth.
As Head of Key Stage 3, my role is to support students with the decision-making process through personalised learning conversations. I discuss option choices with students and also facilitate careers appointments with the careers advisor who is able to offer information regarding Universities, courses and careers.
I work closely with the Head of KS4 to ensure we take a triangulated approach to supporting students' decision-making process, through data analysis, observations of attitude to learning and career aspirations.
