All Saints Roman Catholic School, York is State Secondary school for kids aged 11 to 18 (Gender - Mixed)
The mission as a Catholic school is rooted in the gospel values of faith, love and unity. They expect all members of the school community to live out these values in their every-day interactions. The young people treat others with dignity and respect and have high expectations of themselves and others, encouraging each other to succeed. Academic excellence is our first priority and a positive approach to learning is at the heart of the school. Students are set realistic, challenging targets and through the nurturing and aspirational environment that is central to the community, they achieve results to be proud of. The students are the finest ambassadors, demonstrating what can be achieved through hard work and a positive attitude. They are actively involved in the extra-curricular opportunities available to them; many pupils achieve musical and sporting excellence as a result and maintain these throughout their adult life.
Key Stage 3
Students study a wide range of courses in keeping with the National Curriculum and the School’s Curriculum Policy. Here at All Saints, they believe in providing a broad and balanced curriculum, offering students the opportunity to achieve in a wide spectrum of subjects. They value all subject areas in the development of children and encourage students to create a curriculum that will enable them to pursue their own interests alongside the core subjects. Religious Education is part of the core curriculum for all. They are dedicated to the physical needs of young people and all the students participate in Physical Education as part of their core curriculum from Year 7 to Year 11 inclusive.
Key Stage 4
In Year 10 the vast majority of students will select 3 GCSE courses to complement their core subjects of Religious Education, English Language, English Literature, Maths and Science. For most students these choices will include one or more of the English Baccalaureate qualification subjects (Geography, History, Computer Science, French, German, Latin and Spanish). When selecting their other preferred GCSE courses students are able to choose from a wide array of additional subjects including: Art, Business Studies, Dance, Design Technology, Drama, Food Technology, Health and Social Care, Music, PE and Textiles. We encourage as many of our students as possible to follow the full English Baccalaureate (EBacc) pathway which requires choosing a Language and a Humanities subject as two of their three GCSE course selections.
Key Stage 5
They offer a broad range of A level and BTEC qualifications to suit a wide range of interests, skills and future career goals. The Level 3 programme includes vocational subjects such as Health and Social Care and Enterprise to more traditional, academic subjects such as Maths, English and Sciences. Some of our courses are only available at A Level such as Politics, Psychology, Philosophy and Sociology and as such prove to be a very popular choice with students looking to try something new. Most of our students start and finish on 3 A levels, though a minority choose 4, the choice is yours.

For those students who are identified as having additional educational needs, a range of specialised strategies are utilised to ensure progress is made in line with the Equality Act (2010) and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations (2014). This involves the effective inclusion of all students in high quality personalised teaching in lessons, supported, where appropriate, by Teaching Assistants. We also provide access to specific support on an individual or small group basis and deliver specific and targeted intervention based on advice from specialists in a variety of fields. At Key Stage 3 they have a small intervention and nurture group to support students who need more specialised provision. This group enables students to develop key skills in core subjects and tailors teaching to specific needs in a supportive and caring environment.
