How else does the school help students make informed and sensible choices?

At Key Stages 3 and 4, this curriculum is supported by the school’s assembly programme which currently includes assemblies on Staying Safe, Safety with Fireworks and Bonfires, Safety in the Summer, Anti-Bullying, Mental Health, Internet Safety and Knife Crime. Staying Safe and Healthy is also a key theme of other form time sessions and tutors regularly share topical reminders as well as signposting students to relevant resources.
