Caistor Grammar School is a community where we work hard to enable our students to make the most of their ability, to be happy and to be fulfilled. We help our students gain an enviable academic education, to learn practical skills and to develop their power to reason. Learning, for us, goes beyond examination results. We promote learning to foster an understanding of the other aspects of life: social, moral, spiritual, aesthetic and physical.
Key Stage 3
Students in the first three years study English, Maths, Science, Computing, History, Geography, Modern Languages, Art, Music, Design and Technology, Religious Education, Physical Education and Citizenship. Our approach to Science treats Biology, Chemistry and Physics as separate subjects. In Year 7 students will study German or French as their first language. In September 2021, the first language will be German. In Year 8 (from September 2022) there will be the opportunity to start one of either Latin or French as a second language. Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE) is delivered in a number of ways: through a programme of PSHE lessons directed by Heads of Section and taught by tutors, through assemblies and through a series of visiting speakers covering Living in the Wider World, Health & Wellbeing and Relationships. In Year 9, we have an additonal lesson stregthening our provision for Relationships & Sex Education (RSE). This programme and our curriculum emphasian inclusive approach, personalised learning approaches and follow assessment for learning strategies.
