Academic Year 2021-2022 Year 9 Curriculum
Year 9 Curriculum
The long term curriculum plans present an overview of the topics covered each half term. They also provide
information on the nature of the assessments and offer suggestions on extra resources that can be used to
support learning.
It is important to emphasise that these plans are working documents and departments actively use them as
a guide to plan the teaching and assessments throughout the year. However, departments are also flexible
enough to respond to the needs of the learners.
In addition to the curricula for the individual academic subjects outlined in the following pages, students in
Year 9 also have one lesson of PSHE, 2 lessons of PE and two lessons of Games per week.
