Young people have the opportunity to develop to their full potential in preparation of their future life where there is a passion for learning and mutual respect for all.
The school's curriculum is broad and balanced, and includes, where appropriate, all of the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum. There is a particular emphasis on core subjects and on personal skills, as to address significant gaps in previous learning.
We also offer vocational placements to all students and they will have the opportunity to receive staff support as required, including college. In some cases, there may be the opportunity for students to begin working independently at placements. However, this must be risk assessed and pre-planned with the final decision made by the school.
Subjects include:
- English
- Maths
- Science
- ICT
- History
- Geography
- RE
- Creative Arts
- Textiles
- Food Technology
Curriculum Enrichment
Our close liaison and communication with providers operating within the LA widens the opportunities for young people to access a range of vocational and academic opportunities to engage them in education and increase their retention in learning after the age of 16.
The school actively promotes opportunities to broaden students’ experiences through a wide variety of educational visits and working with other agencies to deliver projects on and off-site. The school has engaged in a football project with Hereford United In The Community, Martial Arts and Drama (Bronze Award) and projects with Bright Stripe. One of the aims of Cambian Hereford School is to encourage students to make a positive contribution to society.
One way we achieve this is through continuously engaging students in community and charity events. These events range from fundraising coffee mornings, up-cycling enterprise projects and a range of themed school productions. Students also take part in a volunteering programme for their Duke of Edinburgh awards.
