The Horizon Pathway
“Supportive foundations that keep aspiration high’
This pathway to learning spans across groups in year 7, Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4. Our Horizon is taught by one teacher and follows a more holistic curriculum. This follows the National Curriculum with distinct subjects which is often focused on bridging gaps in learning and social/emotional development resulting from historical non-engagement in education.
Intent:
- Provide a safe, structured, and supportive space for emotional and academic development
- Offer a rich and varied curriculum with consistent adults and routine
- Maintain high expectations for learning and social growth
- High support and appropriate stetch challenge
Curriculum Features:
- Cross-curricular learning and topic-based approaches
- Access to practical subjects (e.g. art, sport, food tech)
- PSHE and personal development deeply embedded
- Focus on pupil voice, choice, and social development
- More enhanced AP offer
- Integrated therapeutic approaches including mentoring, counselling, and regulation strategies e.g. Fagus and Elsa
