The Horizon Pathway

“Supportive foundations that keep aspiration high’

This pathway to learning spans across year 7 to year 11. Our Horizon groups are taught by one teacher and follow a holistic curriculum. The pathway follows the National Curriculum and includes discrete subjects which often focus on bridging gaps in learning and social/emotional development.

Intent:

  • Provide a safe, structured, and supportive space for emotional and academic development
  • Offer a rich and varied curriculum with consistent adults and routines
  • Maintain high expectations for learning and social growth
  • High support and appropriate stretch and challenge

Curriculum Features:

  • Cross-curricular learning and topic-based approaches
  • Access to practical subjects (e.g. art, sport, food technology)
  • PSHE and Personal Development deeply embedded through the pathway
  • Focus on pupil voice and social development
  • Enhanced Alternative Provision offer
  • Integrated therapeutic approaches including mentoring, counselling, and regulation strategies e.g. Fagus and ELSA
