Description

Outwood Grange College has recently moved away from a pathways model to a curriculum which offers more flexibility and opportunities for assessment when ready. It incorporates a two year KS3 and longer blocks of time for option subjects in KS4, enabling courses to be designed and studied on a one year model. Furthermore, KS4 options are ‘lined up’ on two days in the week to support delivery of the 14-19 agenda.
